LOVE this idea. nothing more important in keeping the nouns pulse alive than IRL meetups of die hard nouns fans. incentivizing and celebrating it via rounds feels like such a no-brainer.

thanks for being open to the feedback. yeah for many of the current voter base props from two years ago they are unaware of and even for me hard to remember everything. i would include context and reflections / learnings and how they relate to what you’re trying to do now as much as you can

i’m very supportive of this direction but the wyoming DUNA isn’t without its own tradeoffs and challenges so ppl should read the full blog post and share thoughts! also just a reminder disclaimer is that i’m on the foundation as an independent board member. not a nounder and wasn’t involved in nouns inception. never paid by the foundation. own two nouns personally. in sum i’m just a nouner and nouns fan and wouldn’t support any foundation work that i didn’t personally think is good for nouns.

very excited for this direction. after 3 years of nouns governance a thing i feel strongly is that majority voting (while still the best thing we have for large lump sum decisions) doesn’t work well for smaller scale non consensus ideas and tends to feel opaque to newcomers if we want more free competition of ideas at smaller iterative scales then these types of funding mechanisms where majority consensus isn’t needed to get started but then gradually get more and more funding come your way as consensus is built and the idea out competes others is a great direction it will also reveal in more real time and non majority dominated way what nouners think are worth funding (is it more esports? more animation? plushies?). there could also be some buyer attribution based on what a new nouner immediately chooses to stream to. just a lot of potential for nouns funding to become more well rounded, more legible, and more fun (majority voting governance drama is fun to sum but not all). excited!

for example, nouns could fund a network school scholarship program where we pay for the $1000/mo rent (the “tuition”) for a number of builders in our community to attend the school with less financial burden more context on the network school in this tweet by @balajis.eth https://x.com/balajis/status/1824533037780201580?s=46&t=I3GMmn9RqMp26z1dExtLuA

much bigger! we’ve always dreamed of more IRL spaces where nouns folks could come together and live and work together from time to time and these ethereum aligned pop up cities are essentially offering the perfect container for that to happen. which is amazing

don’t know if prop 608 is going to pass but i think @carlosjmelgar identified something real here network societies / popup cities and nouns are a natural fit and nouns folks should meet up at these cities to naturally spend time and work and hang out together and the dao should help create and coordinate inviting spaces for them to do so i’m just saying that while the focus of the prop as written is about onboarding new ppl to nouns i would also be happy to subsidize exisiting nouns fans to come and enjoy and experience these new spaces and contribute to what they become
