DUNA't sleep on this

More DUNA

The DUNA proposal is live and it's ending soon, below are a few more conversations around this topic, along with a special ZeroPod episode with 4156!

This prop makes me sad. https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/662 But I know many thoughtful members support, so I want to understand. It makes it feel like the Foundation has been the main thing for Nouns and we need to find a new way to facilitate that action. Whereas I see the Foundation as a historic artifact. I worry that the Nounders abundance of caution on such things has harmed the DAO in the past. If you support this, what’s the main reason? https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/662

The proposers are calling this whole "turning Nouns into DUNA" thing a referendum, claiming it'll reshape the future of Nouns. But do they actually believe that? A proper referendum would have at least half of the eligible voters participating, right? We’ve got over 700 eligible votes, yet less than 100 are active, and even at peak, we barely hit 200. Has there been a broad, official announcement to the DAO members or a real call to action from the foundation? Are the objectives clear with the information provided? Has the foundation even attempted to communicate with the DAO outside of these one-sided announcements?

Couldn't make it to the LA stuff, but seems like there was a lot of thinking and talking irl about the future of Nouns. Would love to hear some of folks' takeaways from the conversation!

couldn’t agree more. the only thing i’d modulate is that Nouns as a charity is not an individual view of Nouns, but a vehicle to holistically align the incentives of builders, creatives, and financial contributors in facilitating the productive tension of subcultures and worldviews in Nouns looking at existing charitable organizations like the Sundance Institute, Code.org, the Videogames and Esports Foundation, and the MacArthur Foundation, (just to name a few,) it seems not only possible, but wise for Nouns to pursue charitable designation as a DUNA https://warpcast.com/noun40/0xfe676a51

@nounstown.eth week was a trip 🤯 really cool subcultures gathering @nounsesports @lilnouns @nounish @bigshotklim @sunnypires @nounsbr @publicnouns @basednouns and much more! We all have been part of this community for years now and it’s the first DAO event for the DAO. It was the first time most of us saw each other’s faces. We all have known each other’s voices and have been creating nounish stuff separately for a while, each on your own continent. It was a pleasure to be in LA and a blast to meet you all! Thanks @latsko.eth for the opportunity! And! @nounsfest was amazing with very original films from all over the world @bobburnquist was so @gnars at nounish Dreamland And we had a very warm goodby with @nounsamigos.eth @nounsbreakers @nounskendama First video by @davidtphung ❤️

Noun 40 on Warpcast

new funding meta just dropped 👀 i’m very curious to see how this evolves. at a high level i think it’s much needed and very differentiated from the prop by prop yes/no majority voting since that’s governance energy intensive and isn’t a continuous stream of funding. with flows we can fund non consensus ideas (some money will start to be streamed to things only a minority is interested) and it can be for lower amount continuous funding needed things. i think this is good for plurality in nouns and also just lowering barrier to entry as a builder. it’s a pretty intricate thing so curious to see how it works in nouns and what new things get funded through this 🙌 https://warpcast.com/rocketman/0xf99af83a
