  The slow creation felt like it’d result in a more fair distribution and would cause people to think more about each acquisition of a Noun. After realizing the prices would be high, the SubDAO model got me even more excited.

Welcome to the Discourse everyone so far and a special welcome to those that answered correctly with Bard

The platform is a little empty now but I’m hoping it will fill up with activity fast. Thank you for taking the time to post an introduction, we’ll be kickstarting some discussions so I may ping you on topics that you’ve listed as areas of interest.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  4156 helped us better understand the world of NFT art which lead to our knowing about nouns. I was immediately drawn to nouns via design language and character but stayed for the underlying soul and intent.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Curious re: nouns impact on my own legacy world of character IP, licensing, and the inner workings of such, which I believe is a much needed inevitability but fascinated by everything from proving provenance over trademarks to the 1 rezzed per day activation. Also 3D nouns looks incredible.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  Digital art is not only just as valid as an offline canvas on a gallery wall, it is perhaps more real, and the gatekeepers are no longer needed if we wish it so.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  toys… they are missing, but are they missed?

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  not a joke at all, whole family is listening to super Sentai theme songs from the 2005-2013 era while going on long drives through farmland. May tire of it soon, but for now, this is the answer. Before that, New Order had a new song out at the start of the pandemic but no other shoes dropped.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?
  There is no Area 51 in D&D, so not sure but I share some Druid’s dislike of Vampires.

What first brought you to Nouns?

• Twitter I think

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

• The story of how an experiment based on open-sourced 32x32 pixelated characters whose population increases one a day and that cost more than a Ferrari could one day become an organization that will rival Fortune 100 corporations. It’s nuts, but genius and has no precedent. This is now the world we live in.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
-That crypto will change (is changing) everything and opens up opportunities for anyone who is willing to take the ride. There are no longer any rules. Just play nice out there.

Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

• A coherent accessible story platform that engages the next part of the wider community, who need to understand what the project means and how that can engage. I can help with that by the way.

The 4156 Podcast. That is when I was all-in.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

Creating a never before seen entertainment collective as a whole. I would not want to reduce it or bet on just one thing because I don’t want to limit it.

Aside from that, one projects that’s been talked about a lot inside my own head is, how I, Noun 12, will be sending love letters to every single female punk over the next 10 years, one by one. It’s the only way I can get over breaking up with my Canadian girlfriend, so it will be art as therapy.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

Bidders from 10pm to 3am PST. And generative theme music for each Noun (Soon); hopefully mine sounds like the Italian Spiderman theme.

Exclusively Wu Lyf and Shiro Sagisu.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

Rogue, always a Rogue. I’m clever and fast and very romantic and have great foam-hair.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  Initially, the idea of infinite emissions really drew me in. It seemed unique to the platform (ethereum) so curiosity peaked. Later, flipping the IP model from traditional to crypto native - the possibility of a new business model for IP.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Currently, nouns.party. Guaranteeing Noun ownership with capital rollovers across auctions is an incredible value proposition.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  The impact it will have on humanity is beyond what we “early adopters” can imagine. We therefore need others to show us the way in different realms.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  Learned about Partybid from NotBoring / Packy M. and then discovered the Nouns project. Was part of the failed campaigns to buy Noun 21 and Noun 31, so instead I gobbled up some NOUN11 and joined SharkDAO.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Really interested in PartyNouns as I feel a more diverse ownership base will ultimately be good for the ecosystem overall.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  There is an infinite number of potential models that humans can use to organize around solving important problems and creating value, and that thanks to a convergence of several macro tech and cultural trends, we now have the ability to explore these models at a faster pace than ever before.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  Diversity? I wonder if the current price point and the fact that it’s still so early, means that only a select cohort truly has access to Nouns… how can the ecosystem attract and recruit more diverse perspectives in its key foundational stages?

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  Radiohead (always), new NaS album, Bon Iver on a blue day. Aphex Twin. Max Richter.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?
  Can’t we all just get along?

Thanks to everyone in the ecosystem that has been so patient, helpful and welcoming as I’ve learned about Nouns, DAOs, NFTs and discovered the huge potential of all of this. Excited to be a part of it.

Hi everyone, I’m dropnerd! I helped bootstrap SharkDAO. These days, I focus on auction strategy/execution and assisting with member ideas.

My favorite projects include FOMO Nouns and Nouns x Noir.

DMs open on Discord (dropnerd#1449) and Twitter (https://www.twitter.com/dropnerdETH), would love to hear your ideas about the future of the web3/NFT/cc0/DAO ecosystem.

Hey everyone, Sasquatch from SharkDAO here. Big excitement to be involved in the Nouns ecosystem!

Background experience includes: Lots of time involved in esports, growing up in a beach town, & spending way too much time improving my home cooking just to order takeout anyway.

Here’s a cool album I’ve been listening to recently: Crumbling by Mid-Air Thief

Saw a tweet by @4156 and some articles by @coopahtroopa

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
First of all really interested in learning more about DAOs and the best way to learn imo is to get involved so very excited about Sub DAOs happening in the Nouns ecosystem.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
I come from tech in the music industry and I see the panic in record label executives faces when discussing DAOs and NFTs. I would like to teach people how to begin to transition into Web3. Most people think it will be a very fast shift but I think it will take time but there is a lot we can do now in the music industry to prepare for those opportunities. We are so early.

Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
Not quite sure yet. More accessibility or fractionalization for those of us just entering the space and limited fund collectors.

Hi all, Joshua Fisher here. Love what’s going on and excited to build with you all.

• I wish I could remember exactly which twitter post lead me to Nouns. When I first discovered it I think it was maybe on Noun 3. I quickly found SharkDAO and dove in head first.
• I’m a music and art person so the possibility of derivatives and understanding the potential of CCO is what excites me the most. Otherwise I love that NounsDAO is community focused and charity driven. I love that the first proposal was to multiple charities.
• Don’t get swept away by the headlines. Look under the hood at the technology and the possibilities that it brings.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  I follow a lot of Bitcoin, DeFi and NFT related accounts on Twitter. The degeneration took place along that way and was lucky enough to come across 4156’s profile while searching for random NFT projects. The NounsDAO website seemed interesting so i joined the discord, only to discover that they are beyond the reach of the average Twitter wanderer. Read on Discord and found a lot of smart people so stayed hoping to learn from the interactions.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Maybe I am missing something but I am not sure about the “experiments” part except the novel idea of bootstrapping DAO with daily auctions. These are fetching good value because of a lot of NFT OGs being part of this. Most others initiatives are artists and developers who naturally flock to something that is rich and looking for buidlers.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  Read the post by Hal Finney to understand the kind of people and depth underlying Bitcoin and by extension, all crypto. The scammers you see shilling their next NFT with anon profiles and fake twitter followers isn’t what crypto is all about. Also, Join bitcointalk.org

Hi, I’m kenbot! one of the bootstrappers of @sharkDAO, and founder of studioDao

I have a wide variety of experience at big media companies (Disney/MTV/Nickelodeon/WalkingDead) developing content and content platforms. I left my full time job in may to learn more about crypto and fully redpill myself.

I believe the best future for media creators is to have access to a protocol that replaces traditional studios with incremental funding and team building DAOs. Creating this protocol by collaborating with world class talent is the intention and spirit of studioDao.

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I was researching NFTs that made use of text for a project I am developing. That research led me to nouns.wtf. I made my way into the Rinkeby test, won a noun and joined sharkDAO.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’m open to helping out with great projects like @brkfstsndwch proposal for a NounPOAP.

I am developing a slate of new projects with the genesis team at studiodao and will be putting those up for feedback in early october. Happy to disucss with anyone who wants to drop into our discord. studioDao

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Only one thing? I would create a visualization of the transactions that happen around a noun auction, bidding, auction extension, settlement, and new noun creation, as a way to make the whole thing tangible. this would include short asides to explain smart contracts and private and public keys. it would be narrated by brain and world nouns. and voiced by Jeff Daniels and Snoop Dogg.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  I’m really interested in how the Nouns ecosystem interacts with the wider world, I also love the concept but hope that I can work on a project to make Nouns more accessible to those that can’t afford to bid on a Noun, I’m working through a few ideas in my head!

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I don’t know…checked my history…it’s like I must have just stumbled on it somehow. What drew me in was the idea that you could leverage NFTs to fund public goods in a democratic way and that DAO was already pulling it off in such a short time.

Noadz is the project that really made things “click” and made me realize that Nouns was the right place for me to start. I had a somewhat similar project in mind and it just clicked that Nouns was missing piece. I couldn’t sleep…ended up working all night on it. A few days later and now I’m here diving deeper.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

That people are generally very kind to newcomers in this space and willing to help.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

Understanding by people like me that there’s a path they can take to step into the community without buying a Noun. The website is wonderfully in depth, but I feel like the “door” to this space we’re in now is hard to find.

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?

I’m finally getting into “Science Fiction” by Brand New. As usual with their albums, I didn’t get it at first and now I’m digging in and loving it.

Oh Hi There!

My name is Joel Cares and someday I want to make movies. Right now I mostly make short funny 3D things, lil this, lil that. Also I run the company ANOA making portfolio sites for the film industry.

Here is a 3D Fist Bump

Here’s a Bootleg Aqua Teen video I directed for Adult Swim:

I found Nouns on Twitter… Somewhere in my feed… From Someone… I think?

I absolutely love that nouns is CC0. I’ve been thinking about that for a while. Building a huge universe that everybody can take ownership of and run with.

Nouns are missing pants.

I listen to a lot of Brian Eno these days, that’s my programming music.

I’m looking forward to chatting with people here and adding to the Noun ecosystem.

Sincerely,
Joel Cares

Hi all! I’m ABSTRCT, happy to be apart of the Nouns community.

I was first brought to Nouns through a partner and friend of mine who took a liking to the project. I really admire the strong community and innovation that has been happening around the project and hope to continue to that mission myself. A couple of the most interesting ones are all the collaborations with different artists and the different forms that Nouns can take.

I have been a proprietor of the crypto landscape for awhile now, and I would employ anyone to dig deeper into it if they can. It’s a world full of possibilities. I also love electronic music and I am 100% of a barbarian.

I am currently invested in my own Nouns inspired project: Abstract Noun. It’s a little mix of fine art, AI generation, and the reason we’re all here (the Nouns, duh!) I’m excited to be here and eager to make my mark on the Nouns project.

Hey everyone! Wanted to start getting more involved in the community so thought I’d start here!

• What first brought you to Nouns?

Stumbled across the Nouns while looking into DAO’s around a month or so after the project had been launched. Loved the approach to building an on-chain community/org, and the idea around CC0 and proliferation.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

Really love the idea of the Prop House and potential new mechanisms for capital deployment. I think sub-DAOs working as extensions of the Nouns ecosystem have a lot of potential as well for proliferation/creation.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Interoperability, I think this is one of the biggest value adds of the blockchain that the majority of people don’t really quite get, but the use cases are endless.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

A TV show! Love the comics, but seeing a show on a big streaming service would be epic. (Dream big right? haha)

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?

Anything and everything.
“Shady” by Hubstcy ft. Willoh Lake was the last song I added to a playlist tho

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

Druid, but enjoys singing along with Bards.

• What first brought you to Nouns?

Big fan since launch. Just finished writing our project proposal and looking for a sponsor.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

We want to start a project called Nouns Tribe.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Crypto’s role in facilitating future of distributed systems, self-organization and emergence in complex adaptive systems like humanity and economics.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

A meaningful way to create “descendant DAOs” for a more inclusive and thriving ecosystem. Check out our proposed project!

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  A friend shared the link with me, mind was blown.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  I’m interested in high high level stuff, like how does the nouns virtuous cycle really play out, does it spread wide and far? Do nouns somehow steer the treasury towards unexpected ways and how does that impact the virtuous cycle?

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  That crypto is what we all want it to be and how much work we put it into. So many people on both extremes, some thinking it’s inherently the savior of the world (which it’s not) and others thinking it’s all bullshit (which it’s provably not). Basically, let’s make cool shit that people want and by doing so we are the conjurers of real value

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  I’ll be honest, even tho I know some about Nouns I can’t really say what’s missing and not sound a little stupid, yet.

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  Jazz. I used to think it was the cheesiest music ever but then a friend turned me on to how creative it is and now I love it.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?
  Druid

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  Nouns are a process (for me). Disbelief first, gradual acceptance and respect, moving over into warm fuzzies and the desire to share and promote.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Vox Nouns, The Trapped Nouns, Irregular Nouns are my current favs. And the children’s book idea. Can’t wait to see what 2022 will bring…

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  Be original (like Nouns and Cronje, etc.) and don’t be greedy.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  Can’t tell you because it’s one of my pet projects. Sry!

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  David Lee Roth (I’m an 80s kid). Supposedly his last show is happening in Vegas on my Bday. So I had to get tix. But I was all about pre-1973 Grateful Dead full live shows from the start of the pandemic to recently. Tennessee Jed helped me get through.

  The Randy’s Donuts proposal had me in stitches. I love the openness of the community, the construction of the auction process is brilliant, and I am very interested in on-chain projects. At this point, I am merely a lostnoun, but will continue to follow the auctions and hope to be a part of the nouns soon. The 3D project is great, and the extensive experimental menu feels both fun and intellectually challenging. The idea of a generative on-chain “hedge fund” is just really cool!

To learn more about Nouns, DAOs and share thoughts relating to these pillars feels like the most valuable use of my time for the simple reason of me not yet fully understanding it

Advanced thanks to all those who will tolerate my questions and excited to eventually contribute to this truly unique group.

Hey everybody I’m a total newbie who found out about the Nouns world through a friend and I think it’s really great. I love all the creative and positive energy I’ve seen so far. I’m hoping I can bring my brand of humor, talent and creativity into the Nouns universe. I really liked the proposal of making Nouns glasses irl. Super cool idea.

I am kick-starting a DAO project, and WOWW I was deeply amazed by NOUNS DAO. But a DAO is really too expensive for me to participate in. Hence, I might take that as lessons on my DAO project - MintOurGalaxy.art

  I wish more people understood that there’s far more to crypto and NFTs than what you read in a headline. NFTs, for example, are much more than a cartoon jpeg. They’re a platform for the future.

Hi there!

** ## What first brought you to Nouns? **
Probably @niftynaut ( ), glasses.wtf, curiosity and some time spend on twitter.

** ## There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you? **
I have been working for more than a decade in the field of research, technology and innovation. I have experienced agile experiments, quick wins and learning from early failures are key for innovation and growth. I want to spend my time with disruptive technologies, moonshot thinking, entrepreneurial mindset, exponential growth potential, sustainability, kindness, win-win solutions and cooperation in experiments and projects that interconnect the digital and the real world.

** ## If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be? **
If there would be a way to teach everyone on Earth, wouldn’t it be a secure connected, digital, safe and democratic world, where decisions are made in decentralised organisations? Everybody would already know the potential of crypto.

** ## Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing? **
I went through some of the "Nouns Weekly World Call“ summaries on Discord. What I found was a self-critical discussion about strategy, values, vision and mission.
There is such a high potential with you nouns! What do you think is missing the most?

** ## What kind of music are you listening to lately? **

All proposals and thoughts are interesting in their own way. The very fact that there are many different topics is exciting! I would love to get more involved here!

•If you could teach everyone in the world one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Many topics have already been mentioned here. In my opinion, it is the impact of these technologies and the plenty of applications that will groundbreakingly change the world and the way we interact with each other.

  Been following Nouns for a while. Was just fascinated by the 1-mint-a-day idea and how the entire DAO seemed to capture the ethos of web3 and decentralization.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  I’ve been very interested to see how the community is finding creative and artistic ways to do marketing and PR to try and get the Nouns name out there more. Also interested in how DAOs can accomplish building products (digital and physical) together.

  Omg probably a Druid tbh, but I spent 5 years living in Paris (currently in the US) where I definitely identified more as a Bard

Sam here. I joined back in September last year and swear I filled this out–but don’t see it, so here it goes.

Hello everyone, my name is Daosapiens, I am a woman who is passionate about the concept of nfts, and especially about my favorite and adorable DAOs, so much so that I quit my job to dedicate myself to the creation of an educational DAO , the first decentralized university in the world, where members can choose the contents and the form and proposals they want to develop them, I am passionate about the project, because I understand the transformative potential of education, and we dream with my team of empowering the community to create their own education DAOs around the world… sorry for going on so long… I’m passionate about the subject… now to the questions:

1. What I took to the nouns for the first time was the value that I found in their proposal, that it be a DAO and how from there a community is generated to achieve things that we had not imagined before in any way, I also like the how art is generated on chain

2. I really like the nouns party project, because it makes it easier for people who love nouns and want part of them to access them with a fractional contribution, since we cannot buy a complete one

3. I would teach them that the traditional financial system of fiat currency is no longer backed by gold, that there is over issuance and that in that sense the trust and security that cryptography offers from cryptocurrencies is a wonderful opportunity for empowerment and freedom

4. The substantives need to support the first decentralized university Dauniversity hehe we are really doing it and it would be wonderful to be able to take it to the whole world!! Education today is the fire that the first men had to transform their lives… in many parts of the world and Latin America, web 3.0 would reduce the enormous rates of poverty, but despite the wonderful technology and opportunities that it represents, these themes are difficult to transfer and a few take advantage of it

5. I listen to rock to exercise while doing crossfit

6. Barbarian jajaja

  My grandfather was a Silicon Valley pioneer, he was instrumental in hard drive technology and used to make video games for me long before there were gaming consoles.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  I learned about it from a Japanese influencer on Twitter space.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  Sub-DAO moves to gradually launch. Since the main Nouns are mainly for the celebrity segment, the sub-DAO movement is very important for generalization.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  Real democratization.

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  K-pop

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?
  I don’t know

GM all!

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I actually first found out about Nouns because I was looking into on-chain storage of pixel data for procedural map generation and dhof mentioned that this project did some cool stuff with it and was open-source.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’m interested in the hyperstructure concept and how Nouns protocol applies that in a creative domain. I’m interested to see if this CC0 decentralized meme building and funding thing can really work, and what the ramifications of that are.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

That even though 90% of it is bullshit the 10% that is not is important, net-new technology and conceptual architecture for the future and that we need more creative, thoughtful people involved and actively contributing.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

Easy onboarding tools to quickly grasp the project for non-early adopters. I’ve proposed a 5 minute explainer animation.

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?

Autechre, Fivio Foreign, Dreaming Files and William Basinski.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

Druid, always.

Hi!

After being asleep for several years (long story) I woke into a new world of cryptocurrency, NFTs, and Nouns! I was developing in the early days of web 1.0 and 2.0. now here is 3.0 and it’s like the wild west again! What a great time and place to be!

I am very happy to meet you all, and look forward to building amazing things!

#What first brought you to Nouns?
I have been exploring DAOs for a couple of months now, and Nouns just make more sense than anything else. LOL

#There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
I have only read about half of the props so far, but the irl events and all things educational are spiking my interest.

#If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Decentralization!

#Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

Incubation. Taking concepts further, pulling concepts from discussion for proposal (ie WordPress plugin).

#What kind of music are you listening to lately?

All of it!

Hey everyone, Aubtoshi in the house ya’ll. Stoke level is VERY high right now as I just got my first approval from Small Grants. I look forward to continue building and creating with the Nouns!

What first brought you to Nouns?
While I was teaching an old friend about Sartoshi and the mfers, she taught me about the Nouns. That’s some beautiful cc0 synergy right there. After doing a lot of my own research learning how Nouns DAO worked, I began submitting proposals through PropHouse.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
Gotta love the original Nouns (one day I’ll own one ). Obv love me some Nouns On The Ground and I have had the best time with the other projects I’ve met and interacted with during the PropHouse proposal process, such as Noun Punks, Stoned Nouns, Lil Nouns and Nounish. I also personally geek out over the Nouns Dota 2 Team and can’t wait to see what happens with that.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
Were you ever told as a younger child that the world was yours and you were free to create whatever you wanted in it? Crypto allows that idea that be an actual obtainable reality to strive for.

Hi frens, my name is Reinaldo. I am a brazilian developer with almost 30 years of coding all kind of stuff. From embedded systems to mobile apps.

The first time i saw a computer was a MSX Gradiente Z80. It blew my mind. But after some years working in the industry I lost the enthusiasm.

Then Steve Jobs launched the iphone and the appstore. He got me a second time with pure enthusiasm. I built one of the first apps in the appstore. A game called gudeballs.

But the industry invaded the appstore and we garage developers didn’t stand a chance.

So after many years, I feel the same excitement after discovering the crypto universe and all the magic around NFTs, but I haven’t found any projects that I feel aligned with.

Until I kind of stumbled upon NounsDAO. I fell in love right away. Since then, I have been looking for ways to participate in this universe. I really hope I’m getting it. Even if wrong here or there. Does not matter. What matters is that I feel like a noun and I’m here for the long-term.

Always Bullish my Nouns Frens!

  Heard about the project from a Nouner friend, then saw a couple of other friends get Nouns.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  The NFT DAO aspects – governance, sociology as an art form; the technological copyright aspects – the phygital creativity that it enables.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  NFTs are the future – and it’s a future worth fighting for.

Hi Everyone, I’m so excited to be a part of this group! I’m a writer, brand strategist, and storyteller. I was introduced to web3 many years ago through a podcast on crypto but didn’t really dive in until last year and then again at SXSW this year where I was finally sparked to explore the space more particularly DAOs. I love the ethos behind the Nouns DAO (though not the price to fully participate)–I bought a lil noun and have been following and finding ways to participate since.

I own a storytelling-led boutique marketing consultancy and work primarily with business owners and startup leaders to help them uncover their purpose, grow their businesses, and share their unique stories with the world through the right storytelling and communications approaches. Wine, books, travel, and great food are my love languages. I’m currently diving into what it means to build brands in web3 so anyone with insight to share please reach out So excited to connect with and learn from you all! @Chantaie on all the socials.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  Caught a tweet about Nouns on twitter, got intrigued by cc0 and daily generation of Nouns on chain.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Mainly those projects/proposal that proliferate Nouns by extending its influence and treasury funds into helping the needy and less fortunate. As well as projects that help bridge Nouns branding from crypto-native to mass pubic.

Hi Frens - I’m Rekola.

Lighting Round First -

• What first brought you to Nouns? - Jack Butcher
• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you? - Nouns Coffee, Nouns Esports, and Small Grants.

Who am I -
I am an executive producer of feature films, tv and film3 projects. My current project is NOUNERS - The Series (inspired by Nouns.wtf) I believe in cinema and think great independent films go beyond technique. A great one results from a cultivated connection between the artists and their work, under a controlled budget. Everyone has a story to tell, and my goal is to champion the filmmakers I work with throughout their journey. I also think every human has their own superpowers, mine are— networking, vision-sharing, team building, and executing from concept to completion. What do you think yours are?

What am I working on -

⌐◨-◨ - NOUNERS - The animated series (funded by NSFW) due October 1st. (Discourse Link) When a group of Nouns.wtf NFTs become sentient and self aware in an alien world known as the internet, they must learn to survive while tackling the existential mysteries of the universe in the stupidest ways possible. Watch them grow and learn, all while repeating the same idiotic mistakes that mankind has been making for centuries!

⌐◨-◨ - NOUNS PRESS CORPS - A fully operational press house focused on proliferating the Meme. (Site: http://www.nounspresscorps.wtf/ | Substack Sign up: https://nounspress.substack.com/) We currently offer four defined services:

1. Press Liaison — Managing and Responding to incoming press requests from journalists.
2. Press Release Issuing — Issuing press releases, on behalf of Nounish Projects.
3. Press List Management — Managing the Nouns Press Corps’ Press List. This is a list of Web3 journalists across many print, television, and online press.
4. Pitching Nouns to Press — Networking with Journalists on behalf of Nouns and proactively pitching on behalf of nouns.

⌐◨-◨ - NOUN DUST - BBQ Rib Rub (https://noundust.wtf/) Hope to ship 9/30 - This stuff is delicious. Noun Dust is an appetizing mix of sweet, salty, and smokey that’s been spicing nouns like beef, pork, chicken, and fish, with real flavor, since 2022. This is sure to please even the seasoned smoker. What started as an experiment inspired by CC0 and @NounsDAO. Funded by Small Grants. From seasoning to smoking, grilling to stewing, Noun Dust delights the tastebuds of those in the web3 world. FREE 1 Ounce Size Sample Containers - Just Pay Shipping - Paid for by NSFW.

Outside of Nouns my most recent film & television work includes:

• THE SAVAGE STATE - In 1850’s New England, an innocent boy searches for a fallen star while his world is slowly corrupted by a mysterious evil. THE SAVAGE STATE is an American film directed by Chris Heck. Currently, in development and I am the Executive Producer.

• MY DIVORCE PARTY - Future divorcee, Xan gathers her closest friends in Joshua Tree to celebrate (or more appropriately sulk in) her impending split. Chaos ensues when she reveals she brought her divorce settlement money to the party with the intention of blowing or burning it all by the weekend’s end. Currently, in post and I was a minority investor.

• THIS LAND [2022] - The lives of an array of Americans - a Native American grappling with his past, a same-sex couple on opposite sides of the aisle, a Trump supporter fighting to bring his deported wife back home, and more - are chronicled in this film shot on Election Day in nearly every state. Currently on Film Festival Circuit. I was a minority investor.

• THE BETA TEST [2021] - A married Hollywood agent receives a mysterious letter for an anonymous sexual encounter and becomes ensnared in a sinister world of lying, infidelity, and digital data. Currently released by IFC Distribution. I was a minority investor.

Full Bio
MICHAEL P, REKOLA is the founder & managing producer of Rekola Studios, a multi-family studio, that champions American independent cinema from concept to completion. He is an investor and producer of feature films as well as a consulting producer for various endeavors ranging from global brands, non-profits, national startups, and more. “A rising tide lifts all ships,” is a common phrase you’ll hear Michael repeating. He splits his time between Washington, DC, and his 5th generation family farm in Connecticut, with his wife Kaitlin, their daughter Emmi, son Wyatt, and undomesticated yet devoted canine of twelve years— Monty. Michael supports Premier League side, Manchester United.

I hope to continue building on Nouns!

Hello! I first heard about Nouns when I was invited to a TS by a fren. Noun #388 was being being auctioned.

I am interested in drafting a proposal with my web 3 fren. We both have a desire to help those that can not help themselves. Like dogs and cats!

What is nouns missing? Perhaps a K9 & Feline Committee? ALSO yats. Nouns could use more Yats

I have been listening to recently include JB, Anson Sebra, July, Mac Miller, Owl City, and Dampszn.

Druid ferrrr sure.

Hi y’all!

I’m a professor of human genetics/ computational biology. I love blockchain tech and decentralization. I’ve been big into DeFi for a number of years, though finance is ultimately not actually my passion in terms of why I see blockchain as so valuable/important. It’s just where the biggest ecosystem of strong innovation has been, and I’ve been able to contribute while also being a user, and I’ve overall had a great time.

I love the ethos and social experiment of Nouns. I’ve been a big advocate of the nouns ecosystem for its leadership in innovation using blockchain tech and I previously held two nouns; I regrettably sold to help portfolio balance, but now I’m in the process of correcting that (I recently acquired Noun #64 and I’ve been bidding on a second one).

I’m in the process of drafting a proposal related to something that through my observation has been under-developed in the DAO (growth investing, but done in a very responsible and noun-ish way), and will share it here for feedback and discussion and (hopefully, if there is interest!) refinement, once it is ready!

And I’ve been listening to country music, lately, and also some Lord Huron.

It’s not a what, but a who! I want to thank @BigshotKlim for gifting me a Nouns pin and sticker in New York when I traveled across the world to attend the satellite NFT NYC events.

Currently, Lil Nouns has the cutest art and Gnars DAO interests me the most because I am a skater. (I’ll also say that NounsDAOChinese interests me too as it is my brainchild.)

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

The first things I’ll mention to anyone about using crypto would be to have in-depth knowledge of cybersecurity and know how to keep your assets safe by using an airgap device and having several different wallets for different purposes such as cold wallet, hot wallet, and burner wallet.

The first time I heard about nouns was when I got dm from my friend @bowtiedtreefrog about (I forget but I have the POAP) hehe it’s was noun #388. I remember listening to Im The Bomb on SoundCloud extra times because I thought it was so catchy!!

Yes, there are MANY nounish things already happening around us daily! The ones I am paying attention to are Nouns DOA, Nouns Builder, Food Nouns, and I did win a Gnar from the Twitter picker!!! And a Nounish Watercolor of my Bisoux!! But yes, I’m trying to help some dogs, cats, and horses - and I believe nouns is the best way to go! Good nouns maby to help feed some animals??

If I could teach one thing to anybody about crypto, I would have to say don’t be impulsive when it comes to making decisions in regards to crypto. Patrice PatientLT.

Something nouns is missing is a cashmere pajama party for little dogs!! They are really easy to make it you just cut the arm off a human cashmere sweater🤭

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  A friend told me about Nouns nearly a year ago, and I didn’t tune in. I’ve been very hesitant about NFTs in general, but when I saw this community, and the projects, and the decentralized method of supporting ideas that could occur on the other side of the planet just has me stoked to be here! I wanted to see an NFT community that wasn’t just a stupid jpeg that doesn’t mean anything. Nouns mean something.

-There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
Very interested in OTG projects, community impact projects, IRL Business projects (products/businesses)

I-f you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
That it isn’t just people trying to take advantage of others. That there are people in the crypto ecosystem that care about affecting positive change in decentralized communities across the globe. There are membership organizations all over the world that already exist, NFTs represent a type of membership in a protocol/ subDAO that you believe in.

Hi, I’m idiom-bytes and I’m working on Ocean Nouns, a fork of Nouns DAO as a community-owned fundraising/grants mechanism for projects inside the Ocean Protocol Ecosystem.

I have been leading many aspects of OceanDAO inside Ocean Protocol, and due to the foundation’s grant program sunsetting recently, I thought I would do something for the community.

I decided to launch a Nouns derivative so the community can own and operate their own funding. My self-assigned goal/role for now is to help set the direction/constraints/group. And then, like a hand-grenade, I’m planning to pull the pin, release it, and back off.

I believe Nouns DAO is a fantastic structure for bootstrapping communities, and for operating in an autonomous manner. My hope is that:

1. By introducing this primitive to the Ocean Protocol Ecosystem, it can provide funding and accessibility for early-stage teams to access capital.
2. By focusing on the values, missions, and product constraints, that we can improve proposal quality and guidance towards sustainable products.
3. By using Nouns DAO as a building block, many participants in the ecosystem can now contribute towards writing proposals and helping to stream funds towards teams that are doing good.

The work being delivered via Ocean Nouns includes:

• Founding Group: Currently connecting and bringing together well established participants. I’m the person helping to facilitate everything, but my goal is to be working from the background.
• Mission & framework: Defining the constraints around projects and proposals to accomplish the mission of cash-flow and sustainability.
• Engineering: Working through the code bases & deployment to get this out the door.
• Fundraising: Art assets, deployment to mainnet, live operations. ~4.5k USD raised so far.
• Fundraising: Looking to raise/apply for a grant/retroactive as I move oceannouns forward. I believe it may help me flesh out some designs (like founder funds) which I have not done the complete DD. Everything will be detailed further.
• Art: My colleague (Phd/DigitalArtist) runs an artist collective between Canada & USA, and is a prof in UC of Santa Cruz. He will be the PM on that project. We may use Jetstream to keep it pixel-perfect (I already scraped all the art, file names, etc… and generate the dozens of new items).

You can follow us on twitter.

P.S. If anyone can help me get back onto the nouns Discord that would be awesome (I was kicked off because of recent changes to activity)

Great to meet everyone!

Hi there - my name is shockermandan and I’m the new owner of Noun 524.

I’ve been following Nouns since its inception. I’m a big fan just of the ideas of decentralization in general not DAOs particularly but everything from finance to education and anything else that can be decentralized.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’m not quite there yet. Still getting my bearings about me before diving into the projects and experiments. From my perspective I’m most excited about things that would either be cool (subjective) and/or bring value to the brand and ultimately to holders.

Variant has purchased a number of Nouns. As new Nouns owners, we thought it only made sense to introduce ourselves in a Nounish way: via the Introduce Yourself questions. The following are our answers, and elaborate on why we’re so excited to join this community.

What first brought you to Nouns?
It’s hard to pinpoint what first brought us to Nouns, because so many people on our team have interacted with the Nouns community in various ways. What grew our collective excitement, however, was simple: we think it’s one of the most actively engaged, creative communities in all of web3.

In particular, NounsDAO pioneered the following designs for building strong, credibly neutral communities:

1. The continuous auction mechanism. One Noun is minted each day in perpetuity, which means there’s an equal opportunity for entry into the community, protected over long periods of time. It also means there’s a continuous source of funding to sustain the project.

2. A treasury governed by Noun holders, denominated in ETH. Whereas many projects today sell NFTs for the benefit of a central company, Nouns are sold for ETH that accrues to a treasury governed by Nouns holders. ETH is money, Nouns are governance. While many DAO treasuries are denominated in their native token, unbundling the job of money and governance streamlines NounsDAO’s ability to activate funding for community efforts: using ETH avoids the risk of price-related sell pressure while also ensuring that funding does not result in unnecessary dilution of governance power.

3. A CC0 model of open, permissionless tools & design parameters. Doing so creates another equitable access point for community entry by eliminating financial and legal barriers that may normally prevent a project’s users from becoming owners. The benefits are clear: Nouns continue to organically and authentically proliferate faster than its peers because community members feel empowered and supported in their contributions.

Combined, these design choices form the basis of NounsDAO’s self-propagating meme machine: the proceeds from each auction fund the treasury, the treasury funds projects to propagate the meme, and perpetuating the meme increases demand, which in turn funds the treasury. It’s a robust, positive feedback loop. This works because the meme is meaningful: it acts as a continual schelling point for community-driven projects, for everything from public goods efforts to educational workshops to in-person events.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
Nouns’ unique structure, culture of funding public goods, and process governed by user-owners gracefully coordinates economic and social incentives in a way that few other communities have achieved. In particular, the experiments outlined below highlight ways in which Nouns is actively scaling its impact, exemplifying our thesis at Variant that user-owned networks can grow bigger faster, in more sustainable and equitable ways than centralized alternatives.

1. Funding for public goods. A second order effect of the self-propagating meme machine is that Nouns can fund public goods, so long as they also serve to raise awareness about the project. Examples include a trash cleanup in Nairobi with people wearing Nouns shirts and the provision of care packages in Nouns-branded bags to children in hospitals. We’re excited to see these efforts continue to scale with Nouns.

2. NounsDAO setting a standard for how communities form and evolve. Nouns Builder, for instance, allows anyone to easily deploy a Nounish DAO – i.e. a DAO that uses Nouns’ coordination and mechanism primitives – in minutes. We expect adoption of the NounsDAO design will continue to grow and become a default for decentralized communities.

House of Nouns, of course! I also love The Noun Square — which almost feels like Nouns FM Radio — and all Nounish content creators who aim to get Nouns in front of not only a larger web3 audience, but also the mainstream.

I also love Nouns commitment to AI with the AI Pod. It’s something I want to continue to work to incorporate into my own content.

Beyond basic necessities (i.e. food, shelter, clothes), digital ownership is just as valid, if not moreso, than owning a physical item. Today, true digital ownership is only possible with blockchain.

  Hello, I’m Arya. I joined the Nouns community to eventually push a proposal that I have in mind which could really bring good revenue to the Nouns treasury. More personal and professional details about me and the contributors will be in the proposal topic that I look forward to create soon. I wanted to gather as much feedback as I could before going on-chain and hence I joined Discourse. If anyone could help me out to get more involved in the community and to make my idea reach out to as many people as I can, would really appreciate that!

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  One interesting topic I found was about Bonuses to Noun owners from the treasury. Also gave my bit of feedback as a reply. Very interesting replies in the thread. People with contrasting views, but very sensible and creative discussion in my opinion. Another topic I found interesting was about the Nounish Cryptodemocracy ball, it’s a cause we all support - fair, democratic and transparent governance through blockchain.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  I would teach people how to own their own crypto without relying on custodians and still not get hacked. Very important to push to crypto ethos forward.

Hello All,

My name is Supriyo. I am founder of Atrium.art and Hyy.pe . I’ve been in crypto since 2016 and had the chance to be involved a bunch of crypto native initiatives. At Atrium, we have been trying to build a decentralised production house for extremely high quality cinematic content.

What first brought you to Nouns?

Nouns have always been intriguing since its launch. I saw the first auction go for 600+ eth and the idea of nouns controlling a transparent treasury deployment has been a good and novel governance initiative to follow along. CC0 content is great and in terms of philosophy has a lot of merits. Currently, we have yet to see any real and lasting viral moments of cc0 which goes beyond our bubble and hopefully that changes over time.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’ve been following Nouns for a while, but was waiting for the right Noun to buy.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’m interested in the reusability of the Nouns governance infrastructure through things like Prop House and Nounsbuilder. I believe that crypto has the potential to totally overhaul how humans make decisions and work together in groups and see Nouns at the forefront of that today.

  Gnars. I am an artist, previously worked with MLBB and just so happen that I stumbled upon this group of athletes that supports artist as well. They held art contest around august and it was fun! And then it got me curious that Gnars is funding athletes, not similar to other crypto projects that I joined in. Aaaand kinda searched a bit more about Nouns and I was shocked that they support ideas from any people all over the world! I love how they can give chance for people to share ideas and make it into reality. This movement made me think that this is really a good and warm community.
• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  Proposals funding merch and any other art things that helps spread Nouns.
• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  They should join in this community. Regardless of holding a token or not, anyone is welcome to hop in and share ideas to make it happen in a nounish way.
• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing? Hmm… voting system probably? I’d suggest to focus on quality and constructive criticism way of judging anything inside this community. And active participation in voting. I can somehow see votes are less than what I expect from the volume of token holders.
• What kind of music are you listening to lately? Jpop. Anything pop that pumps my mood to draw nounish stuffs.
• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue? Druid!

I was going down a tunnel of web 3 NFT based fashion projects and found myself here.

For music I’ve been listening to Tom McDonald lately.

Hola! I’m Marcus, I’m a researcher and builder from Guatemala and am happy to be here with you all Looking forward to the journey!

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I can’t quite recall where the first time I came across the Nouns community was. However, the community’s focus on creating a flywheel of support for propagating a really valuable culture both inside and outside of web3 is something I deeply care about!

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

Being from Latin America, I’m a fan of the NounsAmigos community! One of my favourite initiatives was the project you supported at an autistic school in SG as well. My brother has down sydrome, and I’ve spent a significant amount of time working in special education, so am always really happy to see the overlap of crypto and education!

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

The capacity to build self-sovereign systems that minimize exploitation and enable more flourishing and equitable futures! This is exactly what I’m working with a Fellowship at the Ethereum Foundation, where I am conducting some research on the role of crypto in emerging economies. You can read more about that project here.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

There will never be enough focus on public goods and creating network effects around driving positive social change in the world!

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?

I recently went to a Bob Marley musical and was blown away by his capacity to be both an artist and the conveyor of a strong message. As such, I’ve been jamming a lot to Latin Reggae

Hi, I’m max (maxand98 on twitter).

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  Mostly the conversations 4156 has had around the evolution of cryptopunks and why he left that community. That thinking resonated with me having been fairly heavily into cryptopunks at one time.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  The most interesting questions to me are:
  -What is the value proposition of buying a noun? Very few people can articulate an answer to that succinctly
  -Does a governance model like nouns work long term? I agree with the statement that this is the most interesting project in crypto right now because that answer to that question seems very important. The most interesting experiments in nouns are definitely the most on chain ones.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  The notion and power of disintermediation and self sovereignty. It’s hard to teach but a red pill moment if someone can understand what that means

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  Better directories for all the activities and members. A music project/radio station

Hi all! I’m Mike (msizz.eth on ENS, and msizzzzz on Twitter). I’ve been a web2 founder building B2B2C co’s for the past ~10 years and most recently a partner at an accelerator & early stage VC here in NYC. I am incredibly excited to be part of NounsDAO as I have a particular interest in exploring decentralized governance and identity.

What first brought you to Nouns?
I have been a Nouns follower from the beginning and a recent session between 4156 and 6529 really resonated.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
Like others, I’ve seen Nouns create some of the most interesting infrastructure/tools for DAO’s and there is so much more to be done. P.S. Love the idea of the upcoming Prop 200 (Nouns Mail)!

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

I’ve been interested in Nouns for quite a while. It was first brought to my attention by a prospective client who wanted to create a similar system, and has since been popping into my head every couple of weeks. I’m currently watching every day for a perfect noun to bid on

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  

To be honest, I’m hear as a builder more than anything. I see a big pile of ETH and a community dedicated to public good and think of all the problems we could solve together. I’m interested in spearheading philanthropic efforts and contributing to technical development of the ecosystem.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  

That it solves coordination problems previously thought impossible

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

• I came across the animation video done by Ordinary Folk which was really interesting and I decided to come visit the website, after seeing that Nouns is actually a place for creatives I instantly fell involve with the project.

• Well I would say that there’s so much I have seen and each and every creative project I see looks quite enticing every single time. If I was to mention a few though that would be Gnars project for athletes, and Ordinary folk.

I’ve thoroughly enjoyed seeing what NounsAfrica has acheived as their efforts are synonymous with my own background. Viewing the real world impact of a crypto project helps envision what communities with mutual ideals can accomplish.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

I would either want to educate people in third world countries about the improvements of crypto payments for cross-border transactions in comparison to government currency or explain how verifiable community funding can lead to a greater change in our society.

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I was introduced to nouns by my colleague, Goldy. I had dabbled in some crypto before but was truly such a novice in the world of web3 and it’s been a huge (and exciting) learning journey for me over the past 6 months. In learning how prop.house worked I put in my own proposal (Prop House) - which ended up getting funded. What a good time! We’re currently making a documentary about Prop House at nounish, so you’ll be able to see my whole journey soon.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’m very excited about what we’re making at nounish. Documenting the many incredible projects being funded by nouns and making the whole ecosystem accessible to people from all sorts of backgrounds. I also love the work that Necfas is doing with Mucholove, and the welcoming communities of LilSisters and The Nouns Square.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

It’s the future, and it will be as ubiquitous as email before too long. It’s not just for speculative finance bros or extremely techie people. It’s for everyone, and there is so much possibility!

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

The most interesting to me are the forays that Nouns has made to be included in a large variety of print & visual media using the unique IP. I think this is a fantastic use case for NFTs and should be included more in the roadmap of other NFT projects.

I make things that make things and my machines all use SVG files so I’m excited to explore the Nouns world.

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  I’m very curious about DAOs that support artists. I am in a community called Center For Machine Arts that gathers and supports artists that make art with machines. Nouns is the experiment that seems to be working. I want to support and learn from Nouns as an example of creating and supporting a creative ecosystem.

Hey everyone,

We’re long-time Nouns followers and excited to announce a16z crypto will begin participating in NounsDAO with Noun 657. As part of our broader governance program, we’re increasingly focusing on cutting-edge projects that are exploring innovative ideas, delivering new products, and experimenting with unique business models and organizational designs. NounsDAO is at the intersection of many of these currents. Moving forward, we’re planning on contributing to community research efforts and actively voting ourselves, with a bias towards action.

What first brought you to Nouns?

The unique issuance model, the sustained involvement of the community, the DAO infrastructure initiatives, and the commitment to trying new things. We see a broad spectrum of projects working on crypto governance, but Nouns stood out to us as a unique example of community bootstrapping and viral brand proliferation.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

Research and projects with the capacity to deliver on-chain and real-world impacts.

DAO infrastructure. Projects like Nouns Builder and Nouns Agora represent some of the potential pathways for Nouns to fund important tooling. Agora is already in use with other projects like Optimism. It’s introducing new delegation infrastructure that has the potential to fundamentally change how on-chain communities make collective decisions. Likewise, Nouns Builder is offering a pathway to rapidly spin up DAOs with a recurring revenue model.

CC0 pilots. We’ve long been interested in CC0 as a new avenue that leverages some of the incentives built into the web3 model to distribute content and build brands. One example: a16z research advisor Scott Kominers described how CC0 could change the content creation industry.

Research. NounsDAO has fostered a culture of technological innovation by supporting proposals related to the research and development of privacy-preserving technologies, including private voting and Noun Nyms. For on-chain governance to reach its full potential, we will need new cryptographic tools to build systems that are more robust, secure, and expressive than the ones that came before it. We look forward to collaborating with the community on these research efforts.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

The first era of the modern internet [~1990-2005] was about open protocols that were decentralized and community-governed. Most of the value accrued to the edges of the network: users and builders. The second era of the internet [~2005-2020] favored siloed, centralized services. Most of the value accrued to a handful of large tech companies. We are now beginning the third era of the internet – web3 – which combines the decentralized, community-governed ethos of the first era with the advanced, modern functionality of the second era. This unlocks a new wave of creativity and entrepreneurship.

Hello everyone,

I’m delighted to be a part of this incredible platform, and I’m excited to introduce myself. I am a creative director, community builder, and audio engineer based in Nigeria, with a passion for all things innovative and boundary-pushing.

Over the past two years, I’ve been actively involved in the Web3 space, exploring its vast possibilities and collaborating with talented individuals. One of my proudest achievements has been founding APEX TRYBE, a decentralized record label that aims to revolutionize the music industry.

Being a community builder has been an incredible journey for me. I believe in the power of strong and supportive communities, and I’ve had the privilege of fostering vibrant ecosystems where collaboration and growth flourish. Together, we’ve created engaging events, formed strategic partnerships, and shared valuable knowledge.

As an audio engineer, I’ve been honing my skills to create captivating soundscapes that resonate with listeners on a deep level. I’m passionate about pushing the boundaries of audio technology and creating immersive experiences that leave a lasting impact.

I’m truly excited to connect and collaborate with all of you. Let’s embark on a journey together, leveraging the potential of Web3 to unlock new realms of creativity.

Looking forward to the exciting possibilities ahead,

COT

gm frens!

I’m Tridog from the Own The Doge project (ownthedoge.com) spun out of PleasrDAO (pleasr.org). Backstory.

I first came to Nouns when we fractionalized Nounlet #69 as a Doge Pixel ($DOG) perk (and for the lolz) for our community. Claim page.

Then we started playing with Prop House to run our “Bark Tank” for grants to further the Doge legacy. Our page.

I’m most interested in, like Doge, building a decades long brand for Nouns. I’d love to see this exist as an iconic NFT project that supersedes its blockchain beginnings.

I’m passionate about this because I think the art, culture, and social impact of crypto can be so much larger. That’s what I often teach people when talking about Own The Doge (we are the largest crypto gift to Save The Children ($1M+), for example).

So, I’d like to see Nouns continue on the fun brand building angle as well as leave a positive impact not just in fun, but real impact with real people and animals.

I also just got back from Lightning in a Bottle and was blown away by the Zhu set.

169% I’m a Druid and believer of cults for good.

Hey everyone, I’m Cody. Stoked to introduce myself. I’ve been keeping up with the Nouns ecosystem from the periphery for the past 18 months (I own Gnar 434 and Lil Noun 4303), but have recently started going much deeper on Nouns and have found myself spending a bunch of time on the discourse and reading through Prop House.

I lead partnerships for HNT Labs where we’re building Towns, a group chat protocol and application for online communities. I’ve learned, and continue to learn, a wealth of information about web3 communities (and movements) through Nouns, so am excited to spend more time with everyone here.

Hi Everyone,

My names Mujtaba Khan, I’m a recent CS graduate based in Canada . I have a background in software + data, I’m big on sustainability, and have always been interested in energy .

I’m excited to be part of this vibrant community! I’m here to learn, contribute, and hopefully find a way to merge my passion for crypto with my career. I’ve been exploring the space + this DAO for a while now and have a few ideas that I believe may be of some help.

1. Community Onboarding: I’m particularly interested in leveraging your unique “NFT → Treasury → Projects” business model to onboard marginalized communities. Being based in Canada, I see a significant opportunity to engage with indigenous communities, providing them with their own platform to have community treasuries, local artist-based NFTs, and funds flowing toward community-led initiatives (big issue is health care, access to Internet, schooling, food security, energy poverty, etc). This way we can effect real-world change in communities that need it.
2. Sustainable Crypto Mining: I’m also the founder of a BTC mining startup, and I’ve seen firsthand how mining can be made sustainable, beneficial to grid systems, and can even support communities. I propose we explore cryptocurrency mining, staking, validator nodes, and hosting as potential revenue sources for the DAO.
3. Ecosystem Clarity: Navigating the crypto ecosystem can be challenging for newcomers. I believe we could benefit from a more visual, intuitive navigation system that makes it easier for everyone to find their way around (GPS system).
4. Data Collection: Data is power. A yearly census could provide valuable insights into our community’s backgrounds, highlight underrepresented groups, and help us create targeted support systems/on-ramps/programs.
5. University Partnerships: I have connections with several major Canadian universities and Solana U. I believe partnerships with these institutions could provide a steady stream of new eyes, talent, fresh ideas, and potential funding.

I’m looking forward to getting to know you all better and contributing to this community in any way I can. If any of this sounds interesting to anyone, I would love to chat. Let’s make great things happen together!

If anyone is interested in collaborating here is my LinkedIn (only social media I have ), and my email is mkhan787@uwo.ca.

P.s. I’m currently looking for remote internships or early career roles in data analysis, software, or project management. If anyone knows of any opportunities, I’d be incredibly grateful for your help.

What first brought you to names?
It was discussed in a business meeting and it was very interesting for me
There are many experiments and projects happening in the Nouns

Until now, everything is new and interesting for me

If you could teach everyone on earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
A key thing to know about digital currencies: You can be your own bank, manage your assets independently and make transactions without intermediaries. Digital currencies provide security, privacy and financial empowerment. Embracing digital currencies opens up a world of financial possibilities.

Quick! What is missing from nouns?
It is difficult to communicate between people

Hello everyone in the Nouns DAO community! I’m thrilled to have found my way here.

What first brought me to Nouns was the compelling intersection of creativity and blockchain technology. The opportunity to contribute to this dynamic environment was too enticing to pass up.

Among the myriad of projects in the Nouns ecosystem, I’m particularly captivated by the initiatives focusing on NFT integration with movie production. The idea of tokenizing film production assets and enabling decentralized creative processes is both innovative and full of possibilities.

If I could impart one piece of knowledge about crypto to everyone on Earth, it would be its potential to democratize finance and empower individuals. It’s not just about digital money, it’s about a whole new wave of decentralized possibilities.

One area where I think Nouns can grow is in establishing more educational resources, especially aimed at those new to the crypto world. Making our community more accessible can help grow our ranks and impact.

My music taste is always evolving, but lately, I’ve been engrossed in the world of classic rock. The powerful chords and timeless lyrics always manage to energize me.

As for my choice in character, I’d go with a Druid. There’s something fascinating about their connection with nature and versatile abilities.

Excited to be part of this community, and looking forward to contributing to the Nouns discourse!

Hi there, I came across the gnarsdao and was amazed at the possibilities to get stuff done within and for communities!

Im still looking around but just found out about mucho love! And I want to make something similar for garden clubs in urban areas.

I want to show people how easy it can be to have all our belongings in one digital wallet that can actually be kept very safe from theft and other issues.

I’m in all sorts of things, I love skipping and yoga, gardening and getting my hands dirty, shaping green spaces with different plants and their colours throughout the year is awesome, and I love to paint while listening to my friends who DJ - one being VRSYJNES who I want to bring in to the NFT world and help him grow the community he’s in too

I’ve always leaned towards support classes in my world of warcraft days and when I play Wild rift on my down time I like to play as Rakan, Thresh, or Nani

Oh and I love Warframe! That game is so immense and the way it’s built is really appreciative of the technologies that NFTs are based on.

Hey everyone! I’m Josh, a crypto YouTuber digging into the world of nouns. I’ve been reading from websites, joining Discords, and working to get a strong grasp of nouns so I can make a video on it and get more involved in the community. Stoked to be here!

What first brought you to Nouns?

@Hindsight DM’d me about it on Twitter.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

Any that are for public good are especially interesting, but there have been some rad creative projects as well.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

The best investment is learning fundamentals and critical thinking. Life changing opportunities amidst a sea of garbage and nonsense here in the crypto world.

Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

Easy onboarding for new community members.

What kind of music are you listening to lately?

Synthwave and Power Metal. (The Midnight and Beast in Black if I had to choose two bands).

Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

Rogue with a Druid Alt.

Greetings everyone,

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  I have been following Nouns from a distance for quite a while and was always fascinated by the concept and technical implementation. After onboarding into web3 professionally working on a NFT project myself and now working at a web3 company (YGG) I decided to that I was ready to do a deep dive into the community.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  I think the Nouns Esports caught my biggest attention as I was working in the esports industry myself for over 8 years - as a progamer, team head manager and on the game publisher side (Blizzard Entertainment, Tencent). I know how complicated it can be to run an esports team and watching Nouns do it from a DAO is quite amazing.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  To keep it simple I think it is a tool that opens new doors and everyone should at least give it a chance.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  A way to proliferate through content on different social networks to onboard general audiences from gen MZ.

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  Pretty hooked with Post Malone - Chemical - going to his concert in September in Seoul - Korea.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?
  Rogue - Agility is key.

1. Twitter
2. TBH not familiar with many experiments and projects form the Nouns ecosystem, but animated series looks promising
3. Not to be afraid of the thing you should NEVER EVER FORGET OR LOSE OR THE WHOLE WORLD IS DOOMED: seedphrases and how to stay safe while interacting with dApps or smart contracts
4. Lower entry barrier

Hi Everybody! My name is James Lefey, I live in Northern California and am working on becoming a crypto-community buidlr

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  Decentralized Governance is one of my favorite aspects of cryptocurrency and I found nouns about a year ago while carousing projects

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  I like the smaller subdao’s and the nouncil. I think they’re really interesting solutions to scaling and stuff.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
  to write down their wallet recovery phrases not on their computers… … … … .

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  nouns is one of the biggest, and most active DAO’s out there! I think nouns is missing a presence in popular culture. Nouns should be a household name!

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  lil bubble, yung snat, neils, and riff raff ; D

  A rougish lyrical rambunctious druid

Hi,
My name is Paladin and I am the creator of the Paladin Punks. The Paladin Punks collection pays homage to the legendary original Cryptopunks, both the V1 and V2 collections. They carved their way on the blockchain for art and development in Web3 back in June 2017. The 2.320 less female punks in the original collection have now been created after real Web3 women to foster a more inclusive and equal Web3 community going forward. Excitingly, male versions of the Paladin Punks will also be created.
We have a very interesting project coming up where we can get a lot of exposure and we can add the Nounce glasses to it for promotion, we would like to organize music classes for kids inside the our existing Metaverse Museum during this event that brings in 500k people to the city where this is happening.
We have already created some 3D assets for you to look at and we are looking for a small grant to finance our idea for an irl Web2 to Web3 experience. Ideally we would like to organize a tour through our Museum, so we can explain the ideas behind the Paladin Punks.
Would appreciate your help in pointing me in the right direction on how to go about founding sponsors for creating a proposal and post it in the DAO.
Thank you
Paladin

Hey Nouns Community!

What first brought you to Nouns?
For me, the journey into Nouns started when a close friend and client from Belgium mentioned it to me back in June. I’m a technologist with a focus on increasing donations for non-profits, a passion for web3 and DAOs. Intrigued about web3 projects I decided to check it out. The Prop 143 video explained just about everything, and from that point on, I’ve been following Nouns.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
Prop 143 for the Prop House, the Bonney Lake Food Bank and Prop 245 Nouns: A Movie are the top 3 I’ve been following.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
As a technologist I’ve seen first hand how DAOs are improving the way humans transact, live, work and play. One of the most exciting aspects of crypto and blockchain technology IMO is their potential to enhance transparency and accountability in various aspects of society. The blockchain’s inherent transparency empowers DAOs like Nouns and fosters more participatory and democratic decision-making processes.

Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
I think it would be great to have more collaboration spaces or think-tank events for creators to come together and brainstorm. A place where artists, technologists, thinkers, anyone could share ideas and create something amazing collectively. I’m thinking of something like a hackathon where teams form around ideas and then present then for immediate funding.

What kind of music are you listening to lately?
Lately, DROLOE, Kiasmos, and Kasbo artist station on SoundCloud. Electronic vibes that let the mind wander. https://soundcloud.com/discover/sets/artist-stations:149025691

Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?
Um, y’all forgot Mage/Wizard , so I’ll go with Druid.

Looking forward to connecting.

Cheers,
Kevin aka Atlantean

• What first brought you to Nouns? LOVED THE LITTLE NOUNS CHARACTERS I SAW ALL ACROSS WARPCAST/FARCASTER. DECIDED TO START MAKING MY OWN ART WITH NOUNS INFULENCES… REALIZED THE COMMUNITY WAS PRETTY DOPE. REMINISCENT OF THE RARE-PEPE COMMUNITY CIRCA 20-21 BUT MORE FREN-LY.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I am a part of the Precious Plastic community here in Spain. I produce products for Pets - specifically, pet houses which for which I use recycled plastic. I learned about Noggles this way and so i learned about Nouns however I only considered submitting a proposal to Nouns after the support of a member.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I am particularly inspired by Proposal 462. Coral, the owner of the proposal, has done an amazing job at helping vulnerable animals who don’t have any support or help. I am really impressed by both the proposal itself, but the execution and updates. I made cat houses here in Spain and I support the local sanctuaries, but with Nouns’ help I believe I will be able to follow Coral’s lead and make a massive impact in my region.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Crypto is about more than just currency and alternatives to fiat. Crypto has the power to help a lot of people and change operational processes outside of just accounting ledgers. Crypto is a tool.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

I would love to see in-person events, especially here in Spain! Maybe i can host one? It would be amazing to make an event about my proposed project - perhaps we can organized and volunteer our time for a good cause? For me, that could be arranging workshops for the Nouns community to attend which would have a positive impact immediately

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?

I am Spanish and have lived in Latin American countries. Recently, i’ve been listening a lot to Bachata and Merengue music.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

Druid! I try my best to connect with nature and help animals in real life. So if i can do that with special powers like a Druid - even better!

Heya, I’m an interdisciplinary artist(animator, musician, live coder) and I don’t hold any nouns but I was curious about the project after applying for the film festival. I think it’s great that y’all treat artists so well compared to a lot of the early projects in the space, and would like to work on some projects sometime.

My music tastes are probably what you would describe as bouncy trash, bands like lemon demon, tally hall.

Hi all, my name’s Mike, I’m animating one of the Nouns Shorts!
I’m from South Africa, mostly have a background in 2D animation, work for Nickelodeon, Disney, buncha music videos and 2D pixel animation stuff etc. mostly been a (proud) indie my whole career. Having fun animating the short, what a great open brief! Grateful.

I’m also one of the 3 co-founders of Nifty League, a Web3 gaming company. We have our multiplayer platform fighter mobile game ‘Nifty Smashers’ playable on iOS (via TestFlight) and Android via Google Play Store, and are in the process of fixing bugs and optimizing the experience. Nouns has been on my radar for ages, I think we have a couple peeps in our community who are proud Nouns-holders too.

I’ve been lurking around the DAO, and really like what Nouns has going on there. We’re launching our own DAO in Sept, I’m not super clued up on DAO things, our actual founder is more into that space, but I’ve found the Nouns DAO to be nice and clear, and appealing-looking.

Anyways, back to work (and lurking), pleasure to be here, thank you.

hi all

glad i ended up here, the nouns deli, sandwich shop in Melb. Australia, bought me here and I’m so glad I found you all. I am slowly working my way through the community, it’s all so very interesting and exciting as we have been trying to work with NFT communities for years now in a practical and useful way.
Our goal has been and is, to create real life utility and value in Digital Tokens and NFTS - www.nftopia.vip and we see nouns as an opportunity to do this. I feel the value we could bring via our projects could really add value to the nouns community and create crossover into real life, like the nouns deli which seems like a solid step in the right direction - www.c51consulting.com
I love listening to old school rock from to 70s & 80s, hate grunge, apart from Soundgarden.
Look forward to connecting and adding value to this community

Hullo my friends my friends,

So lovely to meet you all : )

Very excited to read about the noun.deli in Melbourne, Australia. My fam originate from just down the road, in fact my Pops had Melbourne’s first globally-reaching, indie HAM radio setup in Glenferrie, with an antenna so tall it took guide wires attached to 5 houses to hold it up. In the early 20th century, he and his other 100 indie HAM radio enthusiasts worldwide basically had a democratized autonymous internet, non-government authorized, before the rest of us. The DAO is strong in my kin and BurnCity.

I am interested in the big guys which are planning to help sprout new nouns. DAO infrastructure. I have in fact spent 17 years building a large project, and I was never comfortable with it sitting within a corporate entity, as it always posed a risk that investors might undermine it’s purpose ‘to preserve cultural knowledge for generations to come’, by selling it out or taking it offline. So, in 2020, I bought out my investors, and had been strategising over the next move when I found you guys. So, I am here with a proposal, to see if the nouns want to become its new guardians, with revenue share perpetually refuelling the parent noun.dao fund.

(Imho) In a hive like humanity, there are two potential forms of control: ladder and lattice. Colonial invaders executed a top-of-the-ladder-down approach to control. But there is an inverse relationship to control. The more you need to use, the less you have. The internet has given us the strongest tool ever to collaboratively rewrite control structures. Projects like Gnu, Creative Commons, Crypto and Dao, fork the ladder into a lattice heirarchy. We are literally re-engineering and rebasing reality. I believe these movements, of what I collectively define as Autonomous Governance, are the single, strongest inversion of the social dynamics of power, humanity has ever seen. Autonomous Governance is not just changing society. It is changing us as individuals. With great power comes great responsibility. It is improving us as societies, and as individuals, in the best of both ways.

What first brought you to Nouns?

I heard about Nouns early on from X, but at the time, I didn’t know much about DAOs, and participating was too expensive for me (it still is but…).

Recently, I’ve been researching NFT projects that have remained active over the years, and Nouns felt like the right community. I’ve been reading Nouns DAO proposals, documentation, and GitHub repos for a few days now, and this has brought me closer to the Nouns Culture.

The fact that Nouns is the first open source brand really resonated with me. As an artist, the ability to use Assets from Nouns DAO and build upon them is endlessly inspiring.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

• The Technology and Nouns Culture. Providing public goods is a dream for me.

• IP Brand, Storytelling, Funding Creatives… that’s truly the “IKIGAI”.

• Also, the YouTube Channel is cool.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

I would start with a quote that I really like: What the Internet did to newspapers, crypto is doing for money. It’s a natural evolution, giving equal opportunities by providing trust.

Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

Even though Nouns Center has all the information gathered in one place, it’s still difficult to explore Nouns World.

I found Nouniversary page by chance on X.

Also, some domains have invalid SSL certificates or no longer exist. I think a “clean up” would be beneficial. Organize everything, remove non-functional links.

What kind of music are you listening to lately?

I grew up with Hip Hop and still listen to it. I also enjoy Rock and RnB.

Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

Bard

** What first brought you to Nouns?**
I heard of it on the outside, but talked to someone who is involved and he was very bullish on it. Then I read up on it, and loved the concept. But I couldn’t win any bids in my price range and costs came down and I was finally able to join.

There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

I’m very interested in the ‘headless brand’ concept, and think Nouns could be the first to really make it happen. There are other experiments in the space, but I love the trustless technical foundation.

If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?
Bitcoin isn’t crypto; but crypto will unleash alot of new self-organizing principles and remove middle-men.

Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
I am still struggling to figure out where all the things are, and even basic things, like cultural norms and stuff.

Hi all, I’m Jason, aka, utuman, a builder based in Kenya for the last 11 years or so. I’m building decentralized reputation and reviews with UTU protocol and building the African Web3 ecosystem with projects like Safari DAO/ETHSafari, Africa Defi Alliance, and Artstorm.nft.

• What first brought you to Nouns?

@carlosjmelgar first introduced me to Nouns last year and I’ve been exploring the mechansims and culture over the last year to understand how it fits with my own building and projects.

• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?

The various mechanisms for delegation, participation, and contribution and the way in which mission, culture, treasury, and other factors can be balanced, sub-communities spawned and supported.

• If you could teach everyone on Earth one thing about crypto, what would it be?

Patience…and to not worry and let it come to them unless they’re particularly interested in it. Decentralization is a feature that many people don’t even realize they want or need and can’t be the tagline of mass adoption. Useful things built on these concepts will eventually win for a variety of reasons. And it will likely be led by the Global Majority…GM, indeed.

• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?

A strong presence and community in Kenya and an easy way for someone like me to explore and understand all the different ways I can get involved.

• What kind of music are you listening to lately?

Sahara desert rock.

• Barbarian, Bard, Druid, or Rogue?

• What first brought you to Nouns?
  For me it has to be the amount of activity you guys have been doing during this weird bear market. I’ve been in the space for over 10 years now and it was time to join.
• There are plenty of experiments and projects happening in the Nouns ecosystem, which ones are interesting to you?
  I think for me, I want to help in spreading awareness as a content creator but also an ops person irl, I want to see how I can help with making sure we get updates on the projects we fund.
• Quick! What’s something Nouns is missing?
  Payment streaming with superfluid. Mostly because, sending over 100k before seeing some work seems not great model for all projects. Streaming payments would allow us to see progress or it is closer aligned with irl work.
• What kind of music are you listening to lately?
  Right now, mostly music for young kids as I have a young kid haha. But when not listening to that, I listen to Tame Impala, rap or edm.

• What first brought you to Nouns?

I own one! I’m not going to share so I don’t dox the wallet, but happy to be a member of the community.
