Memo 0x4a0f9423…326239 on Ethereum

largely an outsider in the current wave of minting euphoria. imo there is a very simple/valuable idea here that can also be read as a cosmetic/branding flaw of prop house; if 'props' were instead called something like 'expressions' you get the general case. Wrote around it in the 2024 re-up vwr; the expressions can be formal requests for eth, but they can also be anything else, and the voting or minting body is given agency to choose which creators to subsidize further. this body can be self-permissioned (like nouncil/amigos etc but with richer dimensionality), which imo will be the 'identity/credibility' layer that ultimately works best for nouns vs top-down tallying of nounish deeds, etc. it would be great if bound and prop house could work together in some way bc it may be wiz is more on the right track but also we have put a lot into prop house which seemingly could fold in some of this infra (additional chains, integrated minting/fee switches) and be instantly a mature (network effects, inherently sybil-resistant) platform for realizing the decentralized funding paradigm i think a lot of us are converging on; collectivized nounish allocation v2! find it difficult somehow to rly support the prop; i think just because i feel like it could just end up swallowing prop-house since there is so much overlap & decentralized small grants may end up being 80-90% of what the dao funds (you could even imagine scout rounds being done alternatively through this, for example). ofc fomenting competition is one way to go, but i think it could be more nounish to encourage collaborations where it makes sense to avoid redundant efforts/fragmentation. (as an aside, afaik wiz has some pending deliverables from a previous prop (?) and wonder if there is any issue with funding new projects while many of us are eagerly waiting for the L2 federation stuff)
