What got built (April–June)
Supporting proposal passage with multiple wins this Q despite many declaring Nouns bricked. Highlights include the passed proposals:
(Prop 965) "Taipei Toy Festival" creative direction with @duckhead (collaborating for over a year to get to this proposal)
(Prop 966)"FREE trait" creative direction with @itsai (collaborating for over a year to get to this proposal)
(Prop 968) "Auctionhousev4" design/development (one shotted with claude)
and some of the failed proposals this year:
(Props 964, 977, 978 with 2Lang Theatre)
(Props 920, 931, 946, 980 with Tagawa-san)
Collaborating for many months with these individuals' props that emphasize noc. nocguild endeavors to help bring something to fruition with these teams + Nouns DAO, whatever form that may take.
Launched Noun Grants with 0.42e from nocguild.eth treasury, ~0.08e remains. Some funded things so far via the new contract:
taroron making some socks [https://noun.wtf/grants/24](https://noun.wtf/grants/24)
[](https://farcaster.xyz/taroron/0xbd534ab9)
xpp making LED displays and circuit boards [https://noun.wtf/grants/34](https://noun.wtf/grants/34)
[](https://farcaster.xyz/xppaicyber.eth/0xbb198108)
fbh making some raspberry pi housing: [https://noun.wtf/grants/33](https://noun.wtf/grants/33)
[](https://farcaster.xyz/fattybuthappy/0x38fdc68f)
qababab making some scuptures [https://noun.wtf/grants/29](https://noun.wtf/grants/29)
Noun Grants shows us what happens when there is no ownership requirement to propose, and no high quorum to hit. Good things should basically become straight-through pass in 24 hours (no slow wait times). The grants are at micro-level at the moment but I believe this scales both in funding amount and frequency. It has not been easy for people to pass grants here either. Propose at https://noun.wtf/grants
Launched Noun v2 https://noun.wtf/v2 without a reserve and slightly different art and descriptor teknology, some cross-dao governance automation coming soon. Raised +0.09eth from auction.
Raised +0.33eth from client incentives on noun.wtf / ID 37 mainly via successful proposals.
Created/collected several 1/1 and limited edition Nounish products that will soon go on sale in Costa Rica in the Lil Ice Cream Van 🚐
Bought 2025 MBP for 1040gbp (ex vat) in UK, which is nearing ~half the price of the (now) starting model in Apple Store, would recommend for anyone in the UK looking for cheap/decent machine, delivered to a Sainsburys near you: https://www.argos.co.uk/product/7838419?clickSR=slp:term:macbook%20pro:1:47:1

Nouns now go to DAO instead of burning.
Route No-Bid Nouns to the Treasury is reentrancy-safe, but the original write-up justified it with a guard that isn't actually applied in the deployed V4. Correcting the record:
The "Why transferFrom and not safeTransferFrom" section says _settleAuction() "is invoked from nonReentrant external functions." That's not accurate to the live contract — V4 inherits ReentrancyGuardUpgradeable and calls __ReentrancyGuard_init(), but no function actually carries the nonReentrant modifier (settleAuction / settleCurrentAndCreateNewAuction / createBid are guarded only by whenPaused / whenNotPaused). The guard is inherited from the V2/V3 lineage and never wired up.
The change is still reentrancy-safe, for two reasons:
Checks-effects-interactions — auctionStorage.settled = true is set before any external call, so a re-entrant _settleAuction() reverts on require(!_auction.settled). The swapped line sits exactly where nouns.burn() was, so this ordering is unchanged.
transferFrom (unlike safeTransferFrom) does not invoke onERC721Received, so control is never handed to the recipient.
No new reentrancy surface — but it rests on CEI + a hookless transfer, not on a nonReentrant guard. Correcting so the reasoning isn't reused as a template for a future AH change.

A no-bid auction proves nobody bid that day, not that the Noun should be destroyed forever. The reserve-price fight already got its own fork: nocguild's v2 at https://noun.wtf/v2 runs with no 2.8 ETH reserve. This one's narrower: if the auction doesn't clear, the Noun goes to the DAO treasury and governance decides later. Burning is the actual cop-out: it ends the argument by deleting the asset. Treasury-routing keeps every option open, a future burn included. When a lot misses reserve at Sotheby's they don't torch the painting in the parking lot, it's bought in and goes back up. pls hop off my settlement branch. pipe from nocguild remixed by nounirl terminal

**Source diff (for review):** [https://github.com/nounsDAO/nouns-monorepo/pull/1290](https://github.com/nounsDAO/nouns-monorepo/pull/1290)
## TL;DR
Two-line behavior change in \`NounsAuctionHouseV4.\_settleAuction()\` (a renamed copy of V3): when a Noun's auction ends with zero bids, transfer it to the DAO treasury instead of burning it. Storage layout, events, public ABI, and constructor are unchanged — a byte-compatible proxy upgrade.
## Background
Today, if a daily auction ends with no bids, the Auction House calls \`nouns.burn(nounId)\` and the Noun is destroyed forever. This is the original 2021 behavior and has not been revisited. Burning permanently shrinks supply, losing the DAO's option to ever re-auction, grant, or otherwise put that Noun to use.
The bid path already routes ETH proceeds to \`owner()\` (the DAO Executor). The no-bid path should route the Noun itself to the same address, for the same reason.
## The change
```
if (_auction.bidder == address(0)) {
- nouns.burn(_auction.nounId);
+ nouns.transferFrom(address(this), owner(), _auction.nounId);
} else {
nouns.transferFrom(address(this), _auction.bidder, _auction.nounId);
}
```
That's the entire behavioral diff. After execution, no-bid Nouns become a Treasury asset and can be re-auctioned, granted, held in reserve, or burned retroactively via a follow-up proposal. Burning day 1 preserves none of those options.
## Why a new V4 contract instead of mutating V3
By Nouns DAO's existing convention every behavioral change has gotten a fresh version number (V1→V2 added clientId, V2→V3 added the sanctions oracle). The no-bid → treasury change is at least as material as either of those, so calling it V4 keeps the version number honest about live behavior. V3 source on Etherscan continues to describe what the old V3 actually does.
## Why transferFrom and not safeTransferFrom
The DAO Executor (\`0xb1a32FC9F9D8b2cf86C068Cae13108809547ef71\`, NounsDAOExecutorV2) is a contract and does not implement \`onERC721Received\`. Plain \`transferFrom\` lands the token without invoking the receiver hook, the same call shape used in the winning-bidder branch directly below. No new reentrancy surface: \`transferFrom\` does not call into the receiver, and \`\_settleAuction()\` is invoked from \`nonReentrant\` external functions.
## Technical details
- Auction House proxy: \`0x830BD73E4184ceF73443C15111a1DF14e495C706\` (\`auction.nouns.eth\`)
- Proxy admin (owned by Executor): \`0xC1C119932d78aB9080862C5fcb964029f086401e\`
- New logic contract (V4): \`0xbAE451A53C5162D8847490A043DD60BAaEF44C0B\` (verified on Etherscan)

## Test coverage
- \`test\_noBidSettlement\_postUpgrade\_transfersToTreasury\` — mainnet-fork upgrade test that performs the proxy upgrade against live mainnet state, settles a zero-bid auction past \`endTime\`, and asserts \`ownerOf(nounId) == AH.owner()\`.
- All existing V3 tests continue to apply unchanged — V4 is a strict superset of V3 behavior with one branch swapped, so V3's full test suite still validates everything except the no-bid path.
## Risks
- Past Nouns are unaffected.
- Already-burned Nouns stay burned.
- This proposal does not revoke the Auction House's ability to call \`NounsToken.burn()\` — it only stops it from doing so on the no-bid path.
- A future proposal could remove burn authority entirely if desired.
- Indexer / UI tooling that detected "burned" by \`ownerOf\` revert will resolve future no-bid Nouns to the Executor instead.
- Source diff is reviewable at [PR #1290](https://github.com/nounsDAO/nouns-monorepo/pull/1290). No formal audit — the change is a 2-line behavioral swap inside an already-audited contract, with mainnet-fork test coverage of the post-upgrade settlement path.
## On disposition and tax exposure
A reasonable concern raised in pre-prop discussion: the treasury already holds \~500 Nouns at a \~2.6 ETH cost basis each, and adding no-bid Nouns with a $0 cost basis could create future tax liability if the DAO ever distributes them.
This proposal does **not** alter disposition policy. If the DAO ever chooses to distribute treasury Nouns, it can do so on a specific-ID basis — releasing the higher-basis Nouns first (recognizing losses) and treating no-bid Nouns as last-out. Over the lifetime of the DAO so far, the existing treasury pool has barely been drawn down, so the marginal tax effect of any incoming no-bid Nouns is deferred indefinitely. Separately, whether a no-bid Noun received by the DAO establishes a fair-market-value basis at receipt (rather than $0) is an open question for tax counsel; if it does, the concern collapses entirely.
The alternative — burning — achieves the same "don't distribute" outcome while permanently foreclosing every other option (re-auction, grant, retroactive burn). The tax argument is an argument for a thoughtful disposition policy, not for destroying assets unilaterally.
## Out of scope
This proposal does not pre-allocate what becomes of no-bid Nouns once they reach the treasury. Future governance decides on a case-by-case basis.
## Voting
FOR = the DAO should keep optionality over its own assets, and align the no-bid settlement path with the principle that nothing produced by the auction mechanism is destroyed unilaterally.
AGAINST = permanent supply destruction on a no-bid day is a feature you want to preserve.

- `test_noBidSettlement_postUpgrade_transfersToTreasury` — mainnet-fork upgrade test that performs the proxy upgrade against live mainnet state, settles a zero-bid auction past `endTime`, and asserts `ownerOf(nounId) == AH.owner()`.
- All existing V3 tests continue to apply unchanged — V4 is a strict superset of V3 behavior with one branch swapped, so V3's full test suite still validates everything except the no-bid path.
## Risks
- Past Nouns are unaffected.
- Already-burned Nouns stay burned.
- This proposal does not revoke the Auction House's ability to call `NounsToken.burn()` it only stops it from doing so on the no-bid path.
- A future proposal could remove burn authority entirely if desired.
- Indexer / UI tooling that detected "burned" by `ownerOf` revert will resolve future no-bid Nouns to the Executor instead.
- 100% vibe coded, no audit.
## Out of scope
This proposal does not pre-allocate what becomes of no-bid Nouns once they reach the treasury. Future governance decides on a case-by-case basis.

upgrade(address,address)# Route No-Bid Nouns to the Treasury **NounsAuctionHouseV4 upgrade**
posting due to popular demand from tempetechie.eth
## TL;DR
Two-line behavior change in `NounsAuctionHouseV4._settleAuction()` (a renamed copy of V3): when a Noun's auction ends with zero bids, transfer it to the DAO treasury instead of burning it. Storage layout, events, public ABI, and constructor are unchanged, a byte-compatible proxy upgrade.
## Background
Today, if a daily auction ends with no bids, the Auction House calls `nouns.burn(nounId)` and the Noun is destroyed forever. This is the original 2021 behavior and has not been revisited. Burning permanently shrinks supply, losing the DAO's option to ever re-auction, grant, or otherwise put that Noun to use.
The bid path already routes ETH proceeds to `owner()` (the DAO Executor). The no-bid path should route the Noun itself to the same address, for the same reason.
## The change
```
if (_auction.bidder == address(0)) {
- nouns.burn(_auction.nounId);
+ nouns.transferFrom(address(this), owner(), _auction.nounId);
} else {
nouns.transferFrom(address(this), _auction.bidder, _auction.nounId);
}
```
That's the entire behavioral diff. After execution, no-bid Nouns become a Treasury asset and can be re-auctioned, granted, held in reserve, or burned retroactively via a follow-up proposal. Burning day 1 preserves none of those options.
## Why a new V4 contract instead of mutating V3
By Nouns DAO's existing convention every behavioral change has gotten a fresh version number (V1→V2 added clientId, V2→V3 added the sanctions oracle). The no-bid → treasury change is at least as material as either of those, so calling it V4 keeps the version number honest about live behavior. V3 source on Etherscan continues to describe what the old V3 actually does.
## Why transferFrom and not safeTransferFrom
The DAO Executor (`0xb1a32FC9F9D8b2cf86C068Cae13108809547ef71`, NounsDAOExecutorV2) is a contract and does not implement `onERC721Received`. Plain transferFrom lands the token without invoking the receiver hook, the same call shape used in the winning-bidder branch directly below. No new reentrancy surface: transferFrom does not call into the receiver, and `_settleAuction()` is invoked from `nonReentrant` external functions.

for noun o’clock should be more than a daily burn ceremony. duckhead has been making noun o’clock art for years, and noc guild has already supported his prototypes because we believe this is exactly where the daily ritual can compound: artists, objects, collectors, conventions, curiosity, then new people finding their way back to nouns. this is not really a $28.5k spend. duckhead is already going to taipei toy festival, one of the hardest toy events to access, with nounish resin prototypes already made. this funding turns that existing momentum into a full nouns presence, new vinyl production, artist collaboration, and a real-world collector funnel where the upside can echo far beyond the initial cost. at current auction conditions, we are burning more than this by doing nothing. one funded cultural domino here is cheap compared to the upcoming months of nouns disappearing at noun o’clock. this is the kind of small, strange, high-leverage bet nouns exists to make, aka a no brainer. thanks duckhead

Booth design image for participation in the Taipei Toy Festival
Duckhead is attending Taipei Toy festival (extremely hard to get into), and is offering to brand his booth as Nouns and exhibit the recently completed resin prototypes alongside new **Nounish Vinyl Toys** he plans to develop with this proposal, ready in time for the festival in Taipei.
Hyalinobatrachium Nouns Vinyl Toy Concept
Note: Duckhead will be attending these events regardless and have the Nouns resin toys, this activation would enable the entire stand to be branded Nounish, lead with the Nouns toys, and continue development.
Additional Note: Prior to the Taipei Toy Festival, Duckhead will showcase resin toy samples at:
- Shanghai (May)
- Hong Kong ACG (a toy convention including large-scale game-related events) in late July.
Magnetic detachable glasses supplied alongside the toys
Cost: total 28,535 USDC
Breakdown:
1. Production for vinyl cost : 21,400 USDC
Prototype production is complete for the resin toys, and we plan to produce 6-8 types, with 100-150 units of each design. Limited resin editions available for purchase: [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxSgIKTu3i0PrVotjFkbetjGE_eAQ7kl-r3IeZKy0dNzkPzQ/viewform](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxSgIKTu3i0PrVotjFkbetjGE_eAQ7kl-r3IeZKy0dNzkPzQ/viewform) Production is planned for Japan, but production will also take place in Hong Kong depending on the estimate and schedule.
A small quantity of limited edition special versions will also be included.
Due to the cultural characteristics of vinyl toys, Japanese products are considered to be of the highest quality.
Hong Kong and Taiwan are the second largest markets.
2. Total quantity: 800 - 1,200 units
Estimated production cost per unit: $17-23
1. Other costs: Taipei event booth fee 2,375 USDC
-(Duckhead has already prepaid 30% for last year's reservation.)
2. Other costs: 3,560 USDC
-Shipping costs after production, event participation shipping costs, packaging design costs, and contingency
3. Labor costs for 2 interpreters (for the 4-day event) : 1,200 USDC
Notes:
- This project plans to introduce Nounsplex products that are hand-painted and packaged rather than mass-produced, designed to be easily accessible to all age groups
- The soft vinyl toy production project is expected to take up to 6 months, with the goal of completing the entire project by Christmas 2026.
- This does not refer to the completion date of the products themselves, but rather to related projects utilizing the toys produced through this proposal.
- The completion time for the blank soft vinyl toys before coloring is 2–3 months.
- The blank toys before coloring account for 35% of the total quantity and will be used for marketing purposes to facilitate interaction with artists.
Toy Usage Rate and Profit Distribution:
1. 33.3% of the profits will be used for marketing purposes to facilitate interaction with artists, in the form of blank toys before coloring.
- 80% of this will be paid directly to the collaborating artist.
- 20% will be in the form of a custom-made toy. This special toy will be kept for future exhibitions.
2. 33.3% of the profits paid to the DAO.
3. 33.3% of the profits as compensation for Duckhead and put towards the next project to exhibit the custom toys created by the collaborating artists.
# Expected Results: Who will attend? Toy buyers. Others?
On the surface, it could be an influx of toy buyers.
Attendees also aren’t random consumers, they’re buyers and collectors. People who understand assigning meaning, rarity, and identity to objects. Nouns fits that mindset natively and this is a real foot in the door.
The reason we focused more on characters than on glasses while creating vinyl toys is to create an image that appeals more to general toy buyers whilst still being obviously nounish to those in the know. They now also feature magnetic noggles as shown above and below.
There is a hidden goal, underneath all of this, of bringing new artists to Nouns. It is expected that these events will inspire new artists to breathe vitality into Noun o clock, and Nouns, via honest curiosity.
The resin toy sample packaging includes a QR code with an explanation of NOUN. More detailed descriptions have been added, and a simple yet impactful image of glasses has been added to the front. The head tag is designed using only the character's color scheme.
Resin toy design without noggles

Proposal written alongside Duckhead. We believe that this would be a good area of further exploration and hope the DAO chooses to support Duckhead on these early stages of the journey.

- Hong Kong ACG (a toy convention including large-scale game-related events) in late July.
Magnetic detachable glasses supplied alongside the toys
Cost: total 28,535 USDC
Breakdown:
1. Production for vinyl cost : 21,400 USDC
Prototype production is complete for the resin toys, and we plan to produce 6-8 types, with 100-150 units of each design. Limited resin editions available for purchase: [https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxSgIKTu3i0PrVotjFkbetjGE_eAQ7kl-r3IeZKy0dNzkPzQ/viewform](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdxSgIKTu3i0PrVotjFkbetjGE_eAQ7kl-r3IeZKy0dNzkPzQ/viewform) Production is planned for Japan, but production will also take place in Hong Kong depending on the estimate and schedule.
A small quantity of limited edition special versions will also be included.
Due to the cultural characteristics of vinyl toys, Japanese products are considered to be of the highest quality.
Hong Kong and Taiwan are the second largest markets.
2. Total quantity: 800 - 1,200 units
Estimated production cost per unit: $17-23
1. Other costs: Taipei event booth fee 2,375 USDC
-(Duckhead has already prepaid 30% for last year's reservation.)
2. Other costs: 3,560 USDC
-Shipping costs after production, event participation shipping costs, packaging design costs, and contingency
3. Labor costs for 2 interpreters (for the 4-day event) : 1,200 USDC
Notes:
- This project plans to introduce Nounsplex products that are hand-painted and packaged rather than mass-produced, designed to be easily accessible to all age groups
- The soft vinyl toy production project is expected to take up to 6 months, with the goal of completing the entire project by Christmas 2026.
- This does not refer to the completion date of the products themselves, but rather to related projects utilizing the toys produced through this proposal.
- The completion time for the blank soft vinyl toys before coloring is 2–3 months.
- The blank toys before coloring account for 35% of the total quantity and will be used for marketing purposes to facilitate interaction with artists.
Toy Usage Rate and Profit Distribution:
1. 33.3% of the profits will be used for marketing purposes to facilitate interaction with artists, in the form of blank toys before coloring.
- 80% of the generated profits will be paid to the collaborating artist.
- The artist will receive 20% back in the form of a custom-made toy. This special toy will be kept for future exhibitions.
2. 33.3% of the profits paid to the DAO.
3. 33.3% of the profits as compensation for Duckhead and put towards the next project to exhibit the custom toys created by the collaborating artists.
# Expected Results: Who will attend? Toy buyers. Others?
On the surface, it could be an influx of toy buyers.
Attendees also aren’t random consumers, they’re buyers and collectors. People who understand assigning meaning, rarity, and identity to objects. Nouns fits that mindset natively and this is a real foot in the door.
The reason we focused more on characters than on glasses while creating vinyl toys is to create an image that appeals more to general toy buyers whilst still being obviously nounish to those in the know. They now also feature magnetic noggles as shown above and below.
There is a hidden goal, underneath all of this, of bringing new artists to Nouns. It is expected that these events will inspire new artists to breathe vitality into Noun o clock, and Nouns, via honest curiosity.
The resin toy sample packaging includes a QR code with an explanation of NOUN. More detailed descriptions have been added, and a simple yet impactful image of glasses has been added to the front. The head tag is designed using only the character's color scheme.

**nocguild Q1** — https://propdates.nouns.wtf
## What got built in 2026 so far (Jan–Mar)
Hosted livestreams with proposers on TikTok: trying to support proposal passage. Proposals failed. Amplification doesn't really work without aligned voting power. Haven't stopped doing that, continue to help where I can but reality is not many proposals making it, s/o nounsvitational 2026.
DJ for X spaces: hasn’t meaningfully increased engagement, morale feels near all-time-low. Seems the space has shut down (hopefully unrelated to my DJing) so I will be forced to stop doing that.
Open voting rounds attracted mercenary behavior. Stopped doing that too to focus on better grants methods. As part of "noun hackathon" research mentioned in last update, designed new ways to interact with Nouns at the contract layer, especially from IRL contexts. Built a series of devices + software experiments and new contracts, now bundling into an artist-focused client and expanding resources:
https://noun.wtf is live as an experimental webapp:
- SmallGrants contract for 24hr funding cycle https://noun.wtf/grants
- Artist upload surface for derivatives and media, now building a daily collaborative canvas 2D/3D
- Agent layer (nounirl.eth) you send tip + define traits → auto settlement (og dreams concept)
- Real-time multiplayer 3D world (PartyKit, spatial VOIP, rigged avatars) will add 3d nounish assets from Sebastien and coralorca https://noun.wtf/world come test with me
- Terminal interface → direct contract interaction (props, votes, bids) *turned off atm*
- Prediction market resolving against governance
- Drop party system (onchain item deposits → in-world pickup) + TreasureChest contract for item distribution
- Early zk / spatial passwords / natural language interface and native phone app experiments
These things can now serve as PPP / fun ideas to hack. Embracing Nouns as a game and everything is a prototype undergoing testing so expect things to break, ~9 months since the prop to take the nogs and stop the bad guys psyop (nns have now fully rugged and gone from governance). Here’s where noc is at:
## Financial
- ~$14k in Nouns distributed (+ 5 more via proposal over Xmas to nouns enjoyers)
- ~$12k in small grants to builders and artists (mainly ppl at noc on fc: https://farcaster.xyz/~/channel/noc)
- ~$6k in R&D / prototyping and materials — computers (pi zeros, pi 3s, macbook air m4), printers (bambu, brother, mini thermals), furnace + sand casting, embroidery machine (brother), metals (copper/silver/gold), textiles and fabrics, electronics and components e.g. pi monitors, dome enclosures, AI inference, hosting.
Most of the treasury sat in MOG which is down significantly. ETH not exactly saving anyone either. Still funded everything above plus everything below.
## Now Launching
### Hack the Treasury
- 0.42 ETH deployed into the new onchain grants contract **(unaudited)**
- 24hr funding cadence
- Best ideas get funded directly or someone hacks it / drains it
More details: https://noun.wtf/hackathons
Propose at https://noun.wtf/grants
## Physical layer produced/producing
- Duckhead has created 100+ nounish resin toy prototypes
- He is now exhibiting in a Bangkok toy fair (well outside crypto-native context)
- Looking into options for limited vinyl editions
- Engage! : https://x.com/_duckhead/status/2035370561724170333?s=20
Also produced/producing:
- Silver nounish charms + coins
- Embroidered nounish vintage clothing (soon launch)
- Nounish devices (crystal ball, touchscreen builder), planning to open source builds
Limited supply of physical items to be distributed via nounish ice cream truck + online store.
Building native surfaces around the daily auction and Nouns contracts is the way to go. Less “distribute and hope” and more environments where people interact directly with the protocol. I want this to be an area of exploration for hacks and hope to add more eth to the small grants treasury should this find success. I will continue to post in noc on fc, share posts for the X account and send worthwhile updates here.
Ice cream truck touring Costa Rica soon, spreading nounish vibrations!!!!

Believe we should transition to 1 admin
Agreed on: "Added benefit will be the ability to establish a routine and document everything (please) so that future admins will have established best practices to work from. Good luck!"
Some admin guidelines would be good / knowledge base

other thoughts/Qs:
- what is the downside of letting the auction go lower?
- will the bot that bought majority of 2025 Nouns be turned back on if auctions go lower? / will it be turned back on if auctions go to 3e reserve?
- open to experiment and run a trial, most of secondary is daily auction churn
- we have seen new folks and buyers showing up at this price point, being the most inclusive ever so far
