Nouns

What if we combined the exit mechanism with a liquid secondary market? 

Every exit mechanic (fork/stream escrow) we have come up with thus far requires that the exitor only takes money away from the treasury.

Now imagine for a minute a system where x% of each auction sale + every nth Noun got automatically provided as liquidity to the $nouns pool. In this scenario, exitors are also being paired up with secondary bidders creating a liquid market for everybody while reducing drain on the treasury.

As someone who initially tried to acquire my noun through $nouns I relate to the pain of egregiously low liquidity. 

I’m having trouble connecting the esports community and this though. Why does one beget the other? I don’t think shallow liquidity is the only thing holding $nouns back, so I would like to know how nouns esports will drive increased demand. You mention the platform enables a variety of onchain features. How popular are those features? What does demand look like for more opportunities? Just need to understand how meaningful this impact might be.

I want to clarify some things here. This is not an @esports prop. We don’t benefit from this prop passing any more than @camp or @nounswap does.

We don’t actually need $nouns to achieve our goals with nouns.gg, but we believe that economic alignment with Nouns is the best path forward for everybody.

Bringing esports onchain. We’re a /nouns community — nouns.gg — /nouns-esports

With all the discussion around the Auction House v3 upgrade I think its worth pointing out that if we can get $nouns liquidity to be large enough, it can essentially become the exit mechanic and secondary marketplace at the same time!

About to ship a very controversial proposal… stay tuned

Looks like one of the recent auctions kicked the proposal threshold up to 3. This cut the amount of potential direct proposers down by exactly 50% from 104 to 52. Seems pretty reasonable to me, and it might actually help boost auction participation a little.

Ok I just sent 100,000 $ANON (about 10% of what I had) to @woj.eth to distribute to Supercast users. He’s right that it’s not ideal that a Supercast-seeded @clanker token didn’t benefit its users very much directly. 

But we can change that with a little ✨positive sum onchain activity.✨ 

I know @kyle and @cameron have already send some over as well, quote cast this if you’ll join us 🫡
