ZAO Fractal Weekly Introduction Presentation

Zaal's weekly introduction to the ZAO Fractal, framed as the first ZAO project you can build on. He covers what the ZAO is - a decentralized impact network for the creator economy, the Z Talent Artist Organization - and how it runs on soulbound, illiquid ZAO Respect earned weekly through peer consensus. He walks the four objectives (empowerment, transparency, sustainability, equitable distribution) and the Respect game itself: breakout groups of up to six, four-minute updates, then on-chain consensus. The ZAO Fractal meets weekly at 6pm Eastern at discord.theZAO.com.

• The ZAO is a decentralized impact network for the creator economy, governed by soulbound, illiquid ZAO Respect earned weekly through peer consensus - not bought.
• Four objectives anchor it: empowerment, transparency, sustainability, equitable distribution.
• The Respect game: groups of up to six share four-minute updates, then rank by consensus (level six down to one), submitted on chain.
• Five ways to contribute: contributions, collaborations, innovations, onboarding, and supporting community members.
• Meets weekly, 6pm Eastern at discord.theZAO.com - turning your camera on earns an extra ten ZAO Respect.
