Nouner section
Nouns Weekly Call:
Nouniversary artist reimbursement discussion
no compensation for designers of new traits yet
NSFW down to give artists 1 ETH/ design
maybe more for heads than accessories?
maybe 1 ETH is too little, but a noun is too much
what about some percentage of auction sales?
maybe we should send out some payment quickly so we don't get stuck and figure out larger compensation later
Retroactive Rewards Retrospective
prop 63 finally wrapped up, we distributed 100 ETH among 101 people
joel and maybe other people are working on a longer summary
a lot to think about - what do we take from this
clear bias towards community work
how would the distribution change if people only had 1 GIVE? what if only nouners could vote?
specific rounds?
for nouners, nouncillors, …
round for unpaid work done in the past?
what is the right size for rounds like these
what is/was the goal?
paying for unpaid work? outsized rewards?
this time it was very broad, without any clear goal
we should request data from coordinape and try to squeeze out as much as we can
Discourse Improvement Ideas Thread - link
how do we make discourse better?
lil nouns are working on a reddit-style voting for discourse, maybe we could utilize that as well?
indicating Nouns held/delegations to discern between just an endorsement from community member vs. potential on-chain vote?
could Roko help bridge the gap between Discourse and Discord, maybe flag promising proposals?
Shark Labs Proposal - link
feels like,how do we proceed
funding a scaled-down version?
dividing into separate proposals?
Shark DAO members will be in the public voice channel after the call to discuss the proposal
Funding a skatepark revitalization
real-world public good, getting out of our bubble
how to approach large projects that cant go through prop house/NSFW first
skatepark project has a wide reach, and might be an important partner for us in bridging the gap with public
important to make sure we get good exposure
what if our branding gets eventually painted over? how do we plan for that/ mitigate it
All call notes can be found here.
