we do a lil noc - december/EOY update (listing in roughly order of time)
- Funded 15+ creators $5000+ to create around noc (ongoing, monthly)
- 8/8 Anniversary Art Death match (Resident Artist was crowned anonymous winner) ~$1200 to participants
- Funded 4 months of noc Jokerace rounds distributing $3000+ to voters (half from noc treasury, half from additional votes) attempting to surface Nounish things and draw in eyeballs (slow burner)
- Funded a collaborative art piece between several artists (not released yet) ~$1000
- Running 24 days of trivia to win Noun 1207 (again) - Live now, go play! https://farcaster.xyz/pip/0xa383774a
- Began manufacturing clothes/accessories (small distribution in Japan etc, none sold-yet)
- Began sand casting Nounish keepsakes, purchased small amounts of silver and gold for casting (initially testing with white copper), I am re-teaching myself (not done since university) - harder than it looks
- Started to bridge governance to other DAOs in the Nounish eco, delegating tokens to individuals wanting to propose solid Nounish ideas
- Began working on a couple of physical prototypes that hopefully can reveal more details about soon, in the process of onboarding some epic product designers to Nouns
- Currently in Japan for the Nounsvitational (thanks to Lil Nouns!!) to spread the good word of noc, nouns and lil nouns - and am currently recording/editing footage, will meet with Tagawa-san this week before the tournament.
Staying true to "meme value", in early October I swapped the remaining eth for mog, which hasn't exactly gone to plan (to say the least). Also purchased two Nouns which have seen similar price decline to the mog (down ~60%), as one Noun will be given away in this trivia round, noc will probably purchase another Noun or two (as the price has halved since initial purchases). On the bright side, at least we didn't hodl nogs as checking Uniswap it appears the remaining LP has been pretty much drained by the team so the 3.6b nogs could today be swapped for only 1.67e, but perhaps (hopefully) the NNS team are planning to replenish the LP?
The noc treasury will remain in quality memes and, as of now, there is still runway for the foreseeable, so will continue to fund the creators that show genuine interest in Nouns (vs some funded individuals who happily accepted money from noc and essentially did the bare minimum and/or ghosted). noc will also help people propose either at the main DAO or one of the many sub DAOs in the ecosystem (beyond the 4 votes at Nouns DAO, nocguild represents ~35 votes at Yellow Collective, ~75 votes at Lil Nouns, and a handful of votes at other DAOs inc Panama DAO and mfer builder DAO, now also looking into Headline DAO to build a token position there). You can also support noc network by collecting art/creator coins from all of the noc creators (links below) and/or buying/providing LP for $noc memecoin, majority of the holders are the creators at noc: https://app.uniswap.org/positions/v4/base/18532 (this was originally distributed via Rounds - now sunset).
I am (slowly) nearing completion of a Lil physical location on wheels in Costa Rica where I will further amplify Noun o clock, Lil Nouns and Nouns into the real-world, sell merchandise and continue to create and fund art and design. There also still exists this candidate that you can point anyone to if they are interested in getting involved: https://www.nouns.camp/candidates/a-petition-for-noun-35-ae4705dc0816ee6d8a13f1c72780ec5021915fed
