ZABAL Update #6

Today’s AMA pushed the ZABAL story forward in a big way.
New people heard the vision. Existing contributors deepened their understanding. And the flow between ZABAL, the ZAO, WaveWarZ, and SongJam became clearer than ever.

Below is a recap of the core topics we covered — and the energy carrying us into Week 2 of the December campaign.

1. ZABAL — The Fast Layer of the Ecosystem

During the AMA, we outlined how ZABAL is becoming the coordination layer across everything we build:

the hub for community submissions
the layer that ties together streams, recaps, and culture
the place where daily activity actually moves

ZABAL is the “movement layer” that sits on top of the ZAO.
It brings speed, distribution, and visibility to the entire ecosystem.

2. The ZAO — Structure, Governance, Intentionality

We also introduced listeners to the foundation beneath it all: the ZAO.

The ZAO is:

slow by design
contribution-based
structured through weekly Fractals
focused on mutual recognition and real work

This week we held ZAO Fractal #78, and the flow of contributions was strong.
It continues to be the backbone of the culture that ZABAL amplifies.

3. Incented x ZABAL — Community Curation Begins

We shared the first look at the Incented content sprint launching this month:

community can submit anything ZABAL-related
the ZAO votes
winners receive rewards for creation and curation

The submission hub is now live:

👉 http://incented.zabal.art/

This will become a core loop of the ecosystem — creation, curation, and recognition feeding into each other.

4. ZAO Fractal #78 — Contributors and Flow

Fractal #78 featured strong participation and consistent contributions from across the ecosystem.
It highlighted how governance, creative work, and coordination continue to feed each other.

Participants this week included:

Zaal
CandyToyBox
Prizem
KingSam
Seven
Metamu
Jango
Steve Strange

The fractal remains the backbone of the ZAO — a weekly check-in with the culture itself.

Closing

Week 2 is officially underway, and the momentum is real.
AMAs, ZAO Fractal #78, Incented submissions, and SongJam activity all pushed the ZABAL narrative forward today.

This is how culture compounds — daily touchpoints, shared energy, and a growing circle of contributors.

More updates tomorrow.
