🧢 Diving Deeper into Hats Protocol, with David Ehrlichman

Overview

At this week’s Optimism Town Hall we’ll dive deeper into the organizational powers of Hats with David Ehrlichman, who is a cofounder of Hats Protocol and Haberdasher Labs.

About David

David is also the author of Impact Networks, an acclaimed book showing how purpose-driven networks create lasting change by embracing interdependence and generating impact through collaboration. Prior to starting Hats Protocol, David cofounded Converge, a network of independent consultants who cultivated impact networks (as you can learn more about in this documentary).

Potential Topics

Some topics that we may discuss include a recap of the inaugural Hatathon (in which the Optimism Fractal Hats Tree was selected as a co-winner), future integrations and synergies between Hats and Fractals, and David’s vision for Hats Protocol. In addition, I also plan to preview some of the next steps for Optimism Fractal Hats integrations that I’m planning in this project and a new mission proposal for a Respect Game fund distribution and reputation system inspired by MMORPGs (massive multiplayer online role playing games).

Community Interview Game

After a brief introductory segment, we’ll jump into a new kind of Community Interview game where community members can propose and vote on questions on the Optimism Town Hall snapshot space. If there are questions or topics related to Hats Protocol that you’d like to be discussed during the Town Hall, then you can post it on this snapshot space at any time and/or vote with Respect to influence the discussion. The questions proposed in the Optimism Town Hall snapshot space will be prioritized during the discussion in order of Respect votes.

Looking Ahead

Feel free to share any related thoughts in the group chat with the founders of Hats Protocol and Optimism Fractal or our community discord. I hope you enjoy the event and am looking forward to hearing your thoughts!
