curious what the community thinks about this since its a sentiment i see pop up now and then my off the cuff take is that old/current nouns voters/members generally struggle to see new influential voters enter, its a power shift dynamic that is built into nouns but can feel uncertain and unpredictable* insofar nouns is a train that is both built and wrecked at the same time (h/t mikegood), the status quo feels 'safe' and 'steady' and in some ways its 'the mess we understand' i wont pretend im fully immune to the feeling of uncertainty, but i think ive learned to embrace it over the years. and i think you can make a case for this cyclical nature of nouns voters/power blocks being 'a very good thing' since it naturally combats stagnation which is a common poison for any org and, honestly, would probably kill nouns rather quickly were we to shut off auctions or otherwise ossify the voter base (note: not focused on or against mikegood, his comment is just what sparked the thought)

very little in Experiments is predictable in the the first place. But we were smart to bake in a directional prediction by open sourcing the protocol and CC0-ing the brand.

absolutely. Holistically we are looking at 3 reasons to build out: 1. reason to believe 2. reason to care 3. reason to buy but that in a venn diagram and in the center, that’s our mission / North Star.

1. Reason to believe by changing people’s lives and making an impact. 2. reason to care through fostering community and making memories together that live rent free in peoples heads. 2. reason to buy through the permissionless entry point into governance to make an impact and support the cause All are built out by a variety of the projects we’re funding.
