Nounlets are live!
A new type of fractional ownership is on the block. Nounlets (made by Tessera) turn 1 Noun into 100 similar-looking Nounlets which are auctioned off every 4 hours.
Very interesting idea, can’t wait to see how this experiment goes.

Nouns Weekly Call:
nounish ⌐◨-◨ – Telling the stories of Nouns DAO through videos - link
even if the vids dont get too many views now, they will works as a net to catch the audience once there is a Nouns proposal that makes a big splash
the existing vids already work as a good primer going into meetings
great quality content
Nounifying Brazil and Web3 Workshops in communities of Rio de Janeiro - link
first DAO to DAO proposal, from GnarsDAO
web 3 onboarding workshop, skatepark revitalization, a donation to Bob Burnquist’s institution
against votes were not necessarily against the proposal, but trying to open up a conversation on setting up a threshold for on-chain proposals (maybe > 20 ETH?)
Proposal 141 - Nounish Friends - link
the proposal was defeated
would a different version of this proposal pass?
we should evaluate based on outcomes, not enthusiasm
there might have been signs this will not pass before it went on-chain
League of Legends Esports Prop - link
signing an australian League of Legends team
LoL is one of the most popular esports games
opens doors to potential sponsors,
potential to earn LoL franchise spot
esports pod is in favor but cant fund a prop this big from their treasury
Vision Van - link
building a high-tech custom van which will take a year, in the meantime, we will use an existing vision van with custom wrapping
in talks with other major sponsors of this project
Proposal amount threshold
how big of prop warrants going on-chain vs alternative routes of funding?
nouner with a good prop and the ability to propose wouldn't want to go to prop house and compete with other props if they can propose on-chain
alternative funding routes?
prop house? competition, fixed timelines, small rounds (doesnt seem like there will be a big round anytime soon)
nsfw? usually for small asks
maybe rather a creation of new group with the specific mandate to fund medium-sized props
All call notes can be found here.
