Some hypotheses:
- It’s a real headless brand in all the ways Nouns failed: low entry point, shared upside, beautiful aesthetic, no treasury / grant culture.
- There are no big expectations (no L3, no tipping, etc). Just aesthetics and cocreation.
- The supply is fully distributed, and no immediate pump at launch.

Some valid points here:
- nouns does need low entry/shared upside
- agree w treasury/grant culture point.   needs to evolve but don’t see it as a flaw (eg 8 fig movie production)
- to give “proliferate nouns” meaning *is* the task at hand, wip
- hard disagree on distribution. no inflation is a critical flaw imo

grant culture failure? what's the background on that?

i don't think of it as a failure. i'd say nouns treasury/grants is at the edge of onchain native resource distribution. what i do agree w here is that it should feel less like a "grant" in the politicking sense and more like a fun way to earn. and we've made tons of progress on that since inception. more coming soon.

it feels like that's one of biggest reasons nouns has been able to proliferate as far as it has up to this point

of course there is room to grow and improve on it but i wouldn't ever refer to it as a failure

agree that an evolved version should feel more fun and less politick-y
