The truth about Nouns is simple, we don’t need more topics or head-scratching. Lack of ability, experience, and know-how have set the project back. Power keeps landing with people playing house with the house’s money, pretending their way through, building alliances. I don’t care for the politics, my concern is the health of the brand. We’ve lost energy dealing with controlling groups that stall progress. If you know me, you know I called this over a year ago. We can’t keep playing pretend and expect it to work. Most involved wouldn’t be trusted to run a lemonade stand, let alone a brand, business, or treasury. Regardless, I’m hopeful and I believe in the new energy entering the DAO, and hope to see the boysclub structures dismantled in the next phase.

It's easy for DAOs to slip into cycles where power consolidates around whoever sticks around the longest, regardless of outcomes. The politics and alliances aren’t going away unless we get sharper at defining accountability, clarifying roles and building systems that reward actual contribution. Without that, the energy gets wasted fighting over the steering wheel instead of driving.

I agree, we need to elevate the right people and define clear roles. That’s all I care about right now, aside from bringing capital back into the DAO. I’d understand the current dynamic more if it were effective gatekeeping protecting something healthy, but most of these groups just suffocate the brand. Credibility and progress don’t come from trauma bonding, chest-beating, or pretending. Yet some of the loudest voices in larger holder groups have never raised capital or built anything meaningful. Favor trading has become the norm, and “send it to zero, it’s part of the experiment” isn’t a strategy, it’s a cop-out. Time-in doesn’t equal credibility, and I can’t pretend someone is capable just because they’ve convinced themselves and a handful of others in a Discord server. That’s the culture we’ve somehow become proud of, and it’s holding the project back. That's why the DAO is in its current position.
