Nouns @ DevConnect 2025

# Nouns @ DevConnect 2025

# 📌 TL;DR

We’re bringing the art of storytelling, onchain minting, and risograph printing together in Buenos Aires for DevConnect 2025. "The Nouns Fair: Draw ETH. Mint ETH. Print ETH." is a hands-on activation where artists will jam, draw, mint on Ethereum, and print their creations live with a risograph.

It’s part art residency, part minting lab, part print studio — and all Ethereum x Nouns.

# 🎡 The Nouns Fair: Draw ETH. Mint ETH. Print ETH.

In November, we will host an art minting and printing lab at DevConnect 2025 in Buenos Aires in partnership with the Ethereum Foundation. This creative space will welcome thousands of the 10–20k expected attendees throughout the week, showcasing Ethereum as a home for art and culture by hosting artists who merge visual storytelling with Ethereum x Nouns and risograph printing.

We will create an event experience featuring a full lab for minting and printing artworks from selected artists, complemented by an exhibition of artworks, physical pieces from past Nouns projects, Nouns vibes, and community elements.

![drawETH_mintETH_printETH_-min](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HyWpw3y5gg.jpg)

We'll invite a curated cohort of 10 artists (because Ethereum's 10th anniversary!) to participate in a short-term art residency at the Ethereum World's Fair. A mix of established artists within the Nouns ecosystem and renowned artists in the Argentine illustration scene, helping to root this project in the local creative community.

Each artist will create a final artwork to be minted as an open edition and produced as a run of 500 risograph prints. We are currently in talks with several artists and will announce the final lineup in future updates. ;) – our first confirmed artist is [Kidd](https://farcaster.xyz/holakidd)! ✨

![confirmed_artist_kidd-min](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rkvPjty5ge.png)

The minting and printing lab will operate during DevConnect throughout the week, where artists will:

- Develop mini narratives & visual stories
- Learn about NFTs in a no-BS way
- Mint their creations as collectibles on Ethereum
- Print their work live on a vintage-style risograph machine

And general attendees will:

- Learn about Nouns in a dedicated showcase
- Get Nouns' merch and swag
- Meet and greet nounish artists
- Have fun with a nounish installation

DevConnect is Ethereum's most relevant and highly expected event of the year. We will transform the space into an art lab, where attendees will witness the creative process, engage with artists, and their art. We want to create a connection with Ethereum through the playful spirit of Nouns. We aim to bring Nouns' good vibes to the core, making Nouns the cultural and visual layer of Ethereum.

---

Fun fact: we’ve handed out Nouns risography prints at every edition of the Nouns Fair. For us, it’s fun to spark conversations about new technologies and creative practices while grounding them in traditional media, bringing together both worlds. Using risography feels fitting—its punk, DIY spirit of self-publishing echoes the cypherpunk ethos at the heart of Ethereum.

For those unfamiliar with risograph printing, take a look at this fantastic batch of prints created by the talented team of Nouns Beyond Screens below. You can also [check this short video](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1zA7gDFvO-k) explainer about risograph printing.

# Second to None — Korea Web3 Meetup (Nouns x Tabi)

# About Tabi

Tabi is a payment-focused Layer 1 blockchain designed to power seamless Web3 transactions with high throughput, ultra-low fees, and instant finality. Built for real-world utility, Tabi supports fast and scalable on-chain payments across gaming, social, and digital commerce applications. Tabi is proudly community-driven, with a rapidly growing global user base and vibrant ecosystem spanning Asia, Europe, and the Americas. Backed by BNB Chain Labs, Tabi shares the vision of making blockchain technology accessible to billions through practical, user-first infrastructure.

Tabi Social Accounts:

1. Tabi Chain: [https://x.com/Tabichain](https://x.com/Tabichain)
2. Tabi Pay: [https://x.com/TabiPayHQ](https://x.com/TabiPayHQ)
3. Tabizen: [https://x.com/Tabizens](https://x.com/Tabizens)

## TL;DR

A high-impact Web3 meetup hosted in Gangnam, Seoul — the financial and technological hub of Korea — organized by Nouns and Tabi. This activation aims to engage retail users, institutional players, and builders by showcasing the role of stablecoins, payment infrastructure, and cross-border value transfer in Korea’s Web3 future. With a proven history of local community engagement, this event serves as a strategic opportunity to scale visibility, adoption, and partnerships in one of the most valuable markets globally.

## Why Korea? Why Now?

South Korea remains one of the most influential and strategic Web3 markets in the world — not only in terms of trading volume, but in shaping global trends around digital finance. It is a country where retail investors, fintech institutions, and emerging protocols all intersect, making it the ideal environment for infrastructure-focused projects.

The Korean Web3 economy is valued at over $50 billion, with a rapidly growing interest in real-world applications such as stablecoin usage, remittances, and on-chain payments. Korean consumers are highly familiar with fintech and mobile payments, and there is clear appetite for blockchain-based solutions that integrate seamlessly with existing behavior.
To establish long-term success in Asia, it is essential to build strong local communities, trust networks, and real-world partnerships — and Korea is the gateway to achieving that. What performs well in Korea often influences decisions in neighboring markets such as Japan, Singapore, and Taiwan. More importantly, success in Korea requires alignment with high standards of product usability, regulatory awareness, and credible branding — all of which this meetup will address.

## Why Nouns is Fit for This

Nouns is not only a protocol or treasury — it is a cultural movement built on community-led branding, decentralized participation, and IRL storytelling. The Korean Web3 landscape, while technically advanced, is still in the early stages of engaging with protocols that represent open governance, community-first values, and globally recognized identity systems. This presents a unique window for Nouns to lead, by pairing its cultural strength with practical utility narratives.

Korea is a market where visual identity, storytelling, and community activation matter deeply. Nouns — with its bold and recognizable branding — is particularly well-suited to achieve high recall, resonance, and user curiosity. An in-person event in Gangnam would expose Nouns to a new demographic of builders, stablecoin users, and institutional partners who may have previously engaged only at a distance. The physical presence of Nouns in this region reinforces its commitment to global inclusivity and long-term ecosystem building.

Moreover, Nouns DAO has a history of supporting on-the-ground activations that are both creative and strategic. This event is no exception. It delivers real-world presence, institutional connection, and narrative expansion — all essential for positioning Nouns as a serious contributor to the next stage of decentralized finance and coordination infrastructure.

## Why This Event Matters

We aim to position Nouns and Tabi as contributors to digital financial infrastructure, not just brands. This event is designed to highlight each project’s long-term vision around stablecoin adoption, cross-border payments, and institutional partnerships, while also growing local community understanding and support.

This is not an experiment. We’ve already co-hosted a successful branded gathering during Korea Blockchain Week 2023, called UDL KBW Narrative Day, which included founders and contributors from key modular infrastructure projects. That experience proved the demand for structured, localized Web3 events in Korea. This next iteration builds on that foundation — with stronger messaging, clearer goals, and focused alignment around payments and real-world value.

As a result, we were able to attract a broad base of users, establish strong brand recognition among the Korean Web3 community, and unlock new opportunities to collaborate with leading KOLs and media partners across the region.

Event:  [https://x.com/0xProfessorJo/status/1833098953723941266](https://x.com/0xProfessorJo/status/1833098953723941266)

## Event Plan

This meetup will take place in Gangnam, the center of Korea’s crypto trading, fintech, and startup activity. The format is intimate, high-quality, and focused on impactful conversations around Web3 finance.

### Planned Schedule:

- Welcome & Opening — Hosted by Tabi & Nouns
- Keynote: “Stablecoins & the Future of On-Chain Value in Asia”
- Fireside Chat: Cross-Border Payment Infrastructure — Where Are We Now?
- Community Panel: Korea’s Unique Role in Scaling On-Chain Finance
- Networking Session: Curated for builders, institutions, and retail leads
- Merch Showcase: Utility-driven giveaways (Tabi + Nouns co-branded items)
- Telegram Engagement: In-event live feedback loop, onboarding new members

### Target Audience:

- Builders of DeFi, payments, and wallet applications
- Korean stablecoin users and Web3 traders
- Exchange partners, VCs, and payment aggregators
- Crypto-native fintech companies
- Local community managers and KOLs

## Strategic Objectives

- Strengthen brand trust and ecosystem visibility for Nouns and Tabi in Korea
- Educate the local market on the real-world applications of stablecoins and blockchain payments
- Onboard new community members through both retail and institutional engagement
- Position both projects as credible, utility-focused protocols with regional expansion plans
- Lay groundwork for integrations and partnerships with Korean Web3 and fintech companies

> This event will set a precedent for high-quality, mission-driven protocol activations in Korea. With the right storytelling, coordination, and local partnerships, we believe this will open long-term opportunities for Nouns DAO and Tabi Chain to grow real adoption and institutional trust in East Asia.

## About the Organizer

This event is led by a long-standing community contributor known in the Korean Web3 ecosystem as 조셉열사 (Joseph), a respected community leader who has been actively advocating for Korean users since the early days of Web3 adoption. The nickname “열사” — meaning “activist” or “champion” — was not self-given, but earned through relentless effort in representing community interests, voicing concerns to project teams, and ensuring that Korea is never an afterthought in global crypto narratives.

As the Korean community lead for Tabi, I have built deep relationships with the “Tabizens” of Korea — not only through events and announcements, but through consistent, daily engagement, language localization, support in Telegram and Discord, and real-time feedback loops with the Tabi core team. My close understanding of Korean retail behavior, pain points, and cultural dynamics gives this event a uniquely local foundation that no outsider can replicate.

This isn’t just an event — it’s a continuation of the grassroots movement I’ve helped shape, rooted in trust, transparency, and two-way communication with one of the most important markets in Web3.

Update Approved Client List

# Update Approved Client List

Clients must be approved via a DAO proposal to receive rewards through the Client Incentives Program. We recommend revoking approval of client IDs that are either deprecated/inactive or noncompliant. Removing these clients ensures that the DAO only allocates rewards to active, compliant participants, while reducing tax and liability exposure for the DAO. This proposal updates the list of approved eligible clients by removing confirmed deprecated/inactive clients, as well as those deemed noncompliant.

- **Deprecated/inactive clients**: These teams have confirmed they no longer wish to operate an active Nouns client ID.
- **Noncompliant clients**: Rewards paid to non-KYC’d entities create unnecessary tax withholding burdens for the DAO. We made multiple attempts to contact all client owners over the past few months. All attempts at communication with these owners were unsuccessful, therefore these clients have been deemed noncompliant.

---

## Clients Proposed for Removal

- **ID 2: [Houseofnouns](http://houseofnouns.wtf)** – Rocketman *(deprecated)*
- **ID 4: [Nouns.biz](http://Nouns.biz)** – Joelcares *(inactive)*
- **ID 8: [Nouns.gg](http://Nouns.gg)** – Nouns Esports *(inactive)*
- **ID 14: [Pronouns](https://www.pronouns.gg/)** – Dot *(noncompliant)*
  - Rewards status: None claimed since the formation of the DUNA. \~1.24 ETH rewards eligible to claim. Claiming would result in a tax liability of approximately $1,350 USD at current prices.
- **ID 15: [Nouns Auction](https://nouns.auction/)** – Nekofar *(noncompliant)*
  - Rewards status: None claimed since the formation of the DUNA. \~0.018 ETH rewards eligible to claim. Claiming would result in a tax liability once $600 USD is claimed.

Renounce Lil Nouns Awards

# Renounce Lil Nouns Awards

Lil Nouns DAO rewards the DAO with every Lil Noun NFT ending in 1. This creates a liability, and the tokens have not been used.

This candidates proposes renouncing the Lil Nouns rewards and directs them to the Lil Nouns DAO treasury instead.

At the time of writing, the DAO's old treasury holds 840 Lil Nouns NFT.

![hyrax a](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rkotvhe5lg.png)
![hyrax n](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rkXqw2lclg.png)

I first learned what an aardvark was thanks to Nouns. What if Nouns is also a place of discovery?

The hyrax looks like a rodent, but it’s actually the elephant’s smallest relative. Known for its “awawa” sound and its chill rock-dwelling life.

Weird, tiny, unexpected. Just the way we like it. Nouns can spark curiosity, make us google things, and show us the weird beauty of nature.

Nouns @ DevConnect 2025 (revised)

# Nouns @ DevConnect 2025 (revised)

## Notes

In light of the defeated last prop, the DevConnect team has offered us the space at no cost to help Nouns get a spot at the Ethereum World's Fair. This will be a prominent, high-traffic, and central space within the venue.

- **Showcase Booth →** free, in collaboration with the Ethereum Foundation.
- **At least 10 artists featured →** different artists each day, each one producing illustrations per day. Each piece will be minted as an open edition + 500 risograph/physical prints.
- **Artists' compensation →** we are increasing this budget to raise compensation and add a couple of artists (shout out to Dusk for suggesting increasing this budget!)
- **Community schedule →** time slots for Nouns builders to host lightning talks, activations, or workshops.
- **Nouns Gallery →** video, illustration, animation, and other media looped/displayed.
- **Noun o'Clock →** we'll celebrate the birth of a Noun every day at DevConnect.
- **Full nounish art environment →** booth walls entirely covered with Nouns art. Selected projects/stories will be showcased (e.g., Nouns Glass Frog, school in Uganda, e-Sports, etc.).
- **Collaboration with artist [Bure](https://farcaster.xyz/bure) →** leading the booth design / visual direction.

# 📌 TL;DR

We’re bringing the art of storytelling, onchain minting, and risograph printing together in Buenos Aires for [DevConnect](https://devconnect.org/) 2025. "The Nouns Fair: Draw ETH. Mint ETH. Print ETH." is a hands-on activation where artists will jam, draw, mint on Ethereum, and print their creations live with a risograph.

It’s part art residency, part minting lab, part print studio — and all Ethereum x Nouns.

![drawETH_mintETH_printETH_-min](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HyWpw3y5gg.jpg)

# 🎡 The Nouns Fair: Draw ETH. Mint ETH. Print ETH.

## 🧪 Printing and Minting Lab

In November, we will host an art minting and printing lab at DevConnect 2025 in Buenos Aires in partnership with the Ethereum Foundation. This creative space will welcome thousands of the 10–20k expected attendees throughout the week, showcasing Ethereum as a home for art and culture by hosting artists who merge visual storytelling with Ethereum x Nouns and risograph printing.

The minting and printing lab will operate during DevConnect throughout the week, where artists will:

- Celebrate the Noun of the day at Noun o'clock
- Develop mini narratives & visual stories
- Learn about NFTs in a no-BS way
- Mint their creations as collectibles on Ethereum
- Print their work live on a vintage-style risograph machine

And general attendees will:

- Learn about Nouns in a dedicated showcase
- Celebrate the Noun of the day at Noun o'clock
- Get Nouns' merch and swag
- Meet and greet the nounish artists
- Meet and share ideas with the Nouns community

## 🧑 Featured Artists

We'll invite a curated cohort of at least 10 artists (because Ethereum's 10th anniversary!) to participate in a short-term art residency at the Ethereum World's Fair. A mix of established artists within the Nouns ecosystem and renowned artists in the Argentine illustration scene, helping to root this project in the local creative community.

Each artist will create a final artwork to be minted as an open edition and produced as a run of 500 risograph prints. We'll have different artists working on their creations each day, which will be printed at the end of the day, for five consecutive days. On the sixth day, we'll bring everyone onsite to participate in a free jam to close the event.

We are currently in talks with several artists and will announce the final lineup in future updates. ;) – our first confirmed artist is [Kidd](https://farcaster.xyz/holakidd)! ✨

![confirmed_artist_kidd-min](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/rkvPjty5ge.png)

## 🖼 Nouns Environment and Gallery

The space will be fully covered with Nouns art featuring representative projects, making the space as nounish as possible. Additionally, we will install a gallery that showcases videos, illustrations, and animations of Nouns' artwork and projects.

![reference-space-and-art-min](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/HJxy0bR5ex.jpg)

## 🗓 Nouns Community Schedule

We will create a community space designed to host Nouns builders, who can share their projects through a lightning talk, activation, or small workshop. We want to make this a collaborative space for the Nouns and Ethereum communities.

![reference-nouns-community-schedule](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/Hy4u5-C5ee.jpg)

*Image reference: World of Apps ⌐◨-◨ at ETHNYC. 2025.*

## 🕰 Noun o' Clock

We'll celebrate the birth of a new Noun every day at DevConnect at Noun o'Clock. A celebration attended by thousands of people every day for a week.

![reference-noun-o-clock](https://hackmd.io/_uploads/BJsuc-05xl.jpg)

*Image reference: This is Nouns; ETHGlobal Lisbon 2023.*

---

DevConnect is Ethereum's most relevant and highly expected event of the year. We will transform the space into an art lab, where attendees will witness the creative process, engage with artists, and their art. We want to create a connection with Ethereum through the playful spirit of Nouns. We aim to bring Nouns' good vibes to the core, making Nouns the cultural and visual layer of Ethereum.

---

Fun fact: we’ve handed out Nouns risography prints at every edition of the Nouns Fair. For us, it’s fun to spark conversations about new technologies and creative practices while grounding them in traditional media, bringing together both worlds. Using risography feels fitting—its punk, DIY spirit of self-publishing echoes the cypherpunk ethos at the heart of Ethereum.

For those unfamiliar with risograph printing, take a look at this fantastic batch of postcard prints created by the talented team of Nouns Beyond Screens. You can also [check this short video](https://www.youtube.com/shorts/1zA7gDFvO-k) explainer about risograph printing.

Nounish kitpas Part 3 As a Global Brand

# Nounish kitpas Part 3 As a Global Brand

## Introduction

![IMG_4538](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TajP9bgAEMMAF?format=jpg&name=large)

**We successfully developed the Nounish Kitpas product and realized a collaboration between Nounish and the Kitpas art supplies manufactured by [Nihon Rikagaku Kogyo Co., Ltd](https://rikagaku.co.jp/).**

## Roadmap

prop [484](https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/484), [667](https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/667), [739](https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/739)

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TGsxcbcAApMPR?format=jpg&name=medium)

**This product was donated to a [primary school](https://x.com/nounsdao/status/1887511322264539374?s=46) in [Davin](https://farcaster.xyz/davinoyesigye), Uganda, with 100 sets plus dustless chalk for blackboards included, courtesy of Nihon Rikagaku Kogyo.**

This time, we are submitting a proposal for the realization of the following.

## Overview

**①Increase package production
②Donate Kitpas
③Have midas become a certified instructor at headquarters
④Have Nouns members become instructors
⑤Send Kitpas to support members**

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TGsxPawAAvYae?format=jpg&name=large)

### ①Increase package production

Regarding Kitpas orders, since the minimum lot size is 1,000 sets, we will produce 1,000 sets next time.
The produced Kitpas will be used for donations to children worldwide, general sales, discounted pricing for instructors, and gifts for support members.

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TGsxJbAAA4FZT?format=jpg&name=large)

### ②Donate Kitpas

We will send 50 sets each of this Kitpas, developed with the goal of reaching children around the world, to the members listed below.
This will cover the associated customs duties and shipping costs.

- [Benjamin](https://farcaster.xyz/latsko.eth)
- [mart](https://farcaster.xyz/alexandergt)
- [Natalie](https://farcaster.xyz/nataliecrue) and more...

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TLz2XbkAADvGy?format=jpg&name=medium)

### ③Have midas become a certified instructor at headquarters

By completing the Midas Headquarters Certified Instructor Program and the Online Instructor Training Course, you will be able to conduct Kitpas Art Instructor training programs in native English for a global audience. Therefore, we aim to help the following individuals obtain their Kitpas Instructor certification through [midas](https://farcaster.xyz/portmidas).

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TL_Rxa8AA8d6z?format=jpg&name=small)

### ④Have Nouns members become instructors

The following members will serve as instructors.
(As these are our recommendations, if any decline, we will move on to the next candidate.)

- [Benjamin](https://farcaster.xyz/latsko.eth)
- [Davin](https://farcaster.xyz/davinoyesigye)
- [Bixbite](https://farcaster.xyz/bixbite)
- [Val](https://farcaster.xyz/valgtaylor)
- [IndexCard](https://farcaster.xyz/indexcard.eth)
- [mikegood](https://farcaster.xyz/mikegood)
- [Matthew](https://farcaster.xyz/matttaylorlol)
- [Natalie](https://farcaster.xyz/nataliecrue)
- [Jix](https://farcaster.xyz/jixai)
- [Mikey](https://www.instagram.com/mikey4649t?igsh=MWN1ZWJnNmRvM2U4eg==)

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TMNNmbgAEPaXn?format=jpg&name=large)

### ⑤Send Kitpas to support members

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G0TajQAb0AEQuss?format=jpg&name=large)

In developing our products, we've implemented native language checks across 17 countries. Because of this, we need to present Kitpas to our global partners who contributed to its development. However, simply doing so incurs various costs like shipping and customs duties. Therefore, these funds will be allocated to send gifts to the members listed below and other support members involved in related tasks.

For example, the following members provided language support:

## Finally

Thank you for reading to the end.
Kitpas is now steadily spreading across the world.
Just as [Bixbite](https://farcaster.xyz/bixbite) once told us, the circle of Kitpas instructors will continue to expand even further, much like the circle of yoga instructors spreading across the world today.
We are truly delighted that we can make this circle grow even larger through Nouns.
We are very happy to be able to do this work together with you.

# Stacking Treasury Yield With OETH 3.0 - step 1/2

Gm Nouners! Peter here with an updated version of my [previous](https://www.nouns.game/vote/816) OETH proposal to stack Nouns treasury yield though OETH

![](https://blush-rapid-impala-153.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/bafybeiemmu3bv636smqwo3yhdchwzonjubj4kq673ldudn6rc5mcczpn6u)

# Summary:

This is the first step in a two-part proposal to convert 1000 ETH of Nouns treasury assets into Origin Ether (OETH) to both increase yield and diversify across multiple LSTs.

- **Why now?** Nouns recently signaled interest in expanding staking beyond stETH (Proposal 810 & 818). Current OETH yield is 3.37% APY, higher than stETH (2.80%) and rETH (2.58%).
- **Impact**: At 1000 ETH, this means roughly +7 ETH/year (\~$30k) of additional yield compared to stETH, while reducing reliance on any single LST provider. A delegation to Nouns is also included in this proposal, giving Nouns governance rights in the Origin DAO
- **Proposal Roadmap**:
  - **Step 1** (this proposal): unwrap 826 wstETH to ETH
  - **Step 2** (follow up proposal): deposit into OETH, secure governance rights with xOGN, and bring Nouns to Origin’s community of thousands of ETH users

*TL;DR: More yield, more diversity, longer runway, and a direct say in OETH governance.*

# Abstract:

I am Peter from the Origin Protocol core team. This is a proposal to increase the yield of the Nouns treasury ETH/LST and increase LST diversity by utilizing Origin Ether (OETH). This proposal was inspired by the Mantle proposal to [unstake](https://nouns.wtf/vote/810) ETH from stETH to be used within other LSTs for increased treasury diversification.

# Motivation:

Origin submitted a 1 ETH proposal to Nouns back in 2023 to test out safely earning the DAO’s ETH a yield through using OETH. However, this proposal did not pass, largely due to poor timing and disagreements with the Nouns fork.

The proposal to Nouns was later followed up with a 1 ETH [proposal](https://lilnouns.wtf/vote/165) to test staking OETH within the Lil Nouns treasury. After several months a supplementary [proposal](https://lilnouns.wtf/vote/203/description) was passed to stake a larger amount of ETH into OETH, where the Lil Nouns treasury has been safely [earning](https://etherscan.io/address/0xd5f279ff9EB21c6D40C8f345a66f2751C4eeA1fB#asset-tokens) a yield ever since. OETH performance reports were shared with the DAO after [30](https://blush-rapid-impala-153.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/bafkreihopcixhvpcyvrhpsl5i3ya4ii6ckqw5vlhf2e4xeut7aywnspv3m), [60](https://blush-rapid-impala-153.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/bafybeigwtvuuyawbejkjb2njjlbcvy44rkc24gcajscjjjnaquig3phrim), [90](https://blush-rapid-impala-153.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/bafybeihg5oisg5e6srs35ffy3b3r4kjpqfvlgikiyqm2jvsmgn7yibgcyq), and [180](https://blush-rapid-impala-153.mypinata.cloud/ipfs/bafybeifsh7jybq26h76vxktioarhd4py7s7aabwhvwivqorbetfrjxvvfi) days to give the DAO full transparency of OETH’s performance alone and versus Lido’s stETH, RocketPool's rETH, and Frax’s frxETH. We believe OETH has now been used within Lil Nouns long enough to warrant another attempt at a proposal for Nouns to safely use OETH for both yield generation and treasury diversification.

As mentioned in proposal 810 & 818, it is clear that the Nouns community is once again interested in earning yield on the treasury and extending the project runway. Proposal 810 & 818 signal that the community would prefer to continue earning yield with LSTs other than stETH, rather than eliminating risk completely and converting LSTs entirely back to ETH to be untouched. This proposal was not meant to replace the mETH proposal from Mantle, but rather to compliment it, and further increase diversity between LSTs within the Nouns treasury.

# Specification:

There have been several changes from the last version of this proposal, developed from discussions within the Nouns community:

1. The amount of ETH in the proposal was increased from 300 to 1000. By having 1k OETH in the treasury, the treasury will be split 1/3 each between Lido, Mantle, and Origin LSTs, and will lead to a greater yield generation and diversification within Nouns. To achieve 1k OETH, Nouns will unwrap 826 wstETH as the first function in the proposal.
2. Origin will provide the Nouns DAO a delegation of xOGN, so that Nouns can participate directly within the Origin Protocol DAO. The delegated amount will start at the level equal to most current UGP delegates, or about 100k xOGN. The [proposal](https://snapshot.box/#/s:origingov.eth/proposal/0x6b3f06e99442aafb31533d12ac8d174d95566de4b78406161e7d2387be93a94e)  to provide non-university organizations a governance delegation passed last week - with this delegation Nouns will have a say in each Origin Protocol governance vote, and will have enough voting power to submit new proposals on Origin's [snapshot](https://snapshot.box/#/s:origingov.eth)  as well as on-chain proposals on Origin's [dapp](https://app.originprotocol.com/#/ogn/governance) (something that is not possible on the Mantle [snapshot](https://snapshot.box/#/s:bitdao.eth/create/gt1mu)  if not whitelisted). OGN governance can directly update/improve OETH, as the OETH protocol is fully controlled by OGN (whereas the mETH protocol is controlled by [COOK](https://docs.mantle.xyz/meth/governance/tokenomics), which is a different governance token than the token Mantle delegated to Nouns)
3. Origin will co-market Nouns to Origin's user base and community of thousands of ETH holders, users, and participants to ensure that the Nouns brand is in front of as wide an audience as possible.
4. At least one Origin Protocol representative will continue attending Nouns DAO/subDAO calls and/or events as we have been the last 2 years and will continue to be a direct line for any questions regarding OETH staking or the other Origin Protocol [products](https://app.originprotocol.com/). The Origin Protocol representative can also be used as a resource for insight in the greater ETH staking world.

## Proposal actions

This proposal has 3 function calls:

1. unwrap the wstETH into stETH
2. approve the Lido exit queue contract
3. request a redemption (withdrawal) from Lido for its underlying ETH at a 1:1 rate

Step 2/2 of this proposal will feature 4 function calls:

1. Claim the ETH from Lido
2. Using the claimed ETH, Mint OETH at a 1:1 rate through Origin's Zapper
3. Wrap the OETH into wOETH to avoid unnecessary daily income‑tax liability for the DUNA
4. Opt-in the Nouns wallet for yield

## OETH Overview

[Origin Ether](https://www.originprotocol.com/oeth) was launched in May 2023 and is an ETH-pegged ERC20 that generates yield while sitting in your wallet. Similar to stETH, OETH yield is paid out daily and automatically (sometimes multiple times per day) through a positive rebase in the form of additional OETH, proportional to the amount of OETH held. OETH is a full-fledged LST with an extremely tight peg (1:1 redemptions to ETH thru Origin’s [ARM](https://docs.originprotocol.com/protocol/arm)) and high yields thanks to DVT direct staking. OETH earns its yield from 3 core components:

- Beacon chain staking through [SSV/P2p](https://grafana.originprotocol.com/public-dashboards/68227b64cc33446886b16a0c024361ea)
- The [Curve AMO](https://docs.originprotocol.com/yield-bearing-tokens/core-concepts/amo)
- Those [opted-out](https://docs.originprotocol.com/yield-bearing-tokens/core-concepts/rebasing-and-smart-contracts)  from receiving the yield - any users LPing in a DEX pool are giving up their OETH yield (in exchange for trading fees & emissions) to those opted-in, leading to a boost in yield

OETH can be wrapped into a DUNA-compliant wOETH to change how the yield is received. wOETH is a ERC-4626 tokenized vault designed to accrue yield in price rather than in quantity. When you wrap OETH, you get back a fixed number of wOETH tokens. This number will not go up - you will have the same number of wOETH tokens tomorrow as you have today. However, the number of OETH tokens that you can unwrap to will go up over time, as wOETH earns yield at the same rate as standard OETH. The wOETH to OETH exchange rate can be read from the contract (0xDcEe70654261AF21C44c093C300eD3Bb97b78192, function number 16), or via the OETH dapp.

OETH’s meticulous design provides increased yields while protecting against centralization and slashing events. Current and historical OETH yields can be seen via the OETH [analytics page](https://analytics.originprotocol.com/oeth/) at all times. [Proof of Yield](https://analytics.originprotocol.com/oeth/poy/) tracks every OETH yield event as the yield is distributed.

## Security Risk Mitigation

OETH has been operational for over 2 years with a TVL of 54,000+ ETH ($235m+), zero exploits or security incidents to date and has demonstrated a strong commitment to smart contract security as shown by our past audits and active ImmuneFi [bug bounty](https://docs.originprotocol.com/security-and-risk/bug-bounties) with a max bounty of $1,000,000 for critical findings. Origin has a continuous auditing agreement with OpenZeppelin and yAudit to review 100% of the OETH and OUSD smart contract changes. All audits can be found [here](https://docs.originprotocol.com/security-and-risk/audits).

External OETH risk assessments:

- [Prisma Risk](https://www.llamarisk.com/research/collateral-risk-woeth-addendum1) - Asset Risk Assessment Addendum: Origin Ether (OETH)
- [LlamaRisk full collateral risk assessment](https://governance.aave.com/t/arfc-add-support-for-wrapped-oeth-woeth-to-aave-v3/19285/2) supporting the onboarding of OETH to the Aave V3 instance
- [Chaos Labs collateral risk assessment](https://governance.aave.com/t/arfc-add-support-for-wrapped-oeth-woeth-to-aave-v3/19285/3) supporting the onboarding of OETH to the Aave V3 instance

Many members of the Origin team, including both founders, are holding a significant portion of their personal wealth in OETH. Origin Protocol’s corporate treasury is also holding millions of dollars in OETH. We have skin in the game and are willing to put our own money at risk with the code we have written.

There are no lockups with this proposal, Nouns can move in and out of OETH and wOETH as the Nouncil, core team, DAO, and community desires. OETH remains completely liquid at all times and can be spent in the same way as its backing collateral, if unexpected expenses were to arise.

## Some words from the artist

Here’s the OG Comb head trait. I wanted to add something that feels weird but still Nounish, it follows the official palette and blends right in with the existing traits.

This isn’t my first trait. My Sock trait was already accepted into the collection. I’m proud to keep adding weird pieces that fit the Nounish vibe and expand the library.

Beyond traits, I’ve been active in contributing CC0 art, memes, and pixel experiments that help spread the culture and keep it fresh. I believe this is what makes Nouns fun and alive.

For this submission, I’m asking for 0.42 ETH as compensation. I feel it’s a fair reflection of the effort and creativity that went into designing it. Of course, I’m open to feedback from the DAO.

Best wishes, Mindtoasted the not\~so\~cool artist still trying to look Nounish ✌🏻

# Noun City – Creative Retreat & Community Engagement at Art City in Tucumcari, NM ⌐◨⁻◨

# Noun City – Creative Retreat & Community Engagement at Art City in Tucumcari, NM

## Background

In April 2025, Nouns DAO funded [Prop 757](https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/757), resulting in the creation of a massive Nounish landmark at [Art City](https://visitartcity.com/), a 40-acre sculpture park and creative hub on Route 66 in Tucumcari, New Mexico. The landmark became an anchor for Nouns in the American Southwest — a visible, permanent installation that embodies the ethos of playful, public art.

[![Watch the video](https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/545815c3e4b0c42e0d7a6235/7503ab9d-a2c1-44d8-b4ef-e0a41d54188a/Screenshot+2025-09-15+at+6.42.55%E2%80%AFPM.png?format=2500w "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4eV4uLMCu4")](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U4eV4uLMCu4)

I propose to build on that foundation by bringing Nouns to life through a **multi-day retreat and community engagement experience**. This will not only activate the Nounish landmark but also deepen connections between DAO members, artists, and the local community.

For those interested, I just gave a [keynote](https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/14gz41JzfRJ0CbeidcMBRUYZaoZXFxGXlpUNQuC6ELDA/edit?usp=sharing) about Art City at the [Aspen Design Conference](https://www.aspendesignconference.com/).

# Support University of Oregon’s Intelligent Futures Lab (IF Lab) for DAO Governance Research

## TL;DR

- Fund a one-time **$10,000 USDC** research grant to the **Intelligent Futures Lab (IF Lab)** at the **University of Oregon** to advance rigorous, public research on **DAO governance**.
- Outputs: peer-reviewed papers, public working notes, and a Nouns-focused research brief—**all open-access** and **acknowledging Nouns DAO**; one public talk + AMA for the Nouns community.
- Lead investigator: **Dr. Alex Murray** (Assoc. Professor; Director, IF Lab), published in Organization Science, AMR, Research Policy; active DAO researcher and community participant.
- Why Nouns: strengthens our role as a **governance R&D hub**, creates credible external scholarship we can cite in future proposals, and deepens ties with academia for efforts like **NounsCon**.

---

## Background: What is IF Lab?

**The Intelligent Futures Lab (IF Lab)** is a student- and faculty-led research group at the University of Oregon that studies how **emerging technologies** (AI, agents, blockchain) transform **organizing, collaboration, and governance**.
Focus areas relevant to Nouns:

- **Human–AI collaboration** in decision-making and coordination
- **Agentic representation** (autonomous agents, synthetic stakeholders)
- **Decentralized governance** (DAOs, tokenization, decentralized AI)

**Director: Dr. Alex Murray**

---

## Why Nouns DAO should fund this

1. **Governance as public good**: Independent, peer-reviewed research helps Nouns (and other DAOs) avoid cycles of folklore and purely anecdotal governance arguments.
2. **Practical guidance**: We’ll receive **actionable briefs** synthesized from field studies/experiments—useful for parameter setting, contributor incentives, delegation programs, and cross-DAO collaboration.
3. **Signal & legitimacy**: Acknowledgment in academic outputs puts Nouns in the footnotes of governance history, complementary to our goal of being a **living testbed** for DAO theory and practice.
4. **Bridges to Researchers**: This creates a pipeline of scholars and content for future DAO research conference, workshops, and poster sessions.

---

## Deliverables

1. **One empirical study**: preprint/working paper + methods appendix; share anonymized dataset or simulated data where IRB/policies allow.
2. **Public talk/AMA** with slides + recording for the community.
3. **Acknowledgment**: “This research was supported by a grant from **Nouns DAO**” in outputs from this grant period.

---

## Budget & Payment

- **Amount**: **$10,000 USDC**, **one-time** grant.
- **Use of funds**: RA time, data collection, research assistance, IRB/participant costs, open-access fees, hosting/pinning.

---

## Alignment with Nouns Vision

- Positions Nouns as a **governance R&D leader**, not just a grant-maker.
- Creates **repeatable interfaces** between DAOs and academia.

Fund Nouns Payer Contract with USDC

# Fund Nouns Payer Contract with USDC

Unfortunately, the [Nouns DAO Payer](https://etherscan.io/address/0xd97Bcd9f47cEe35c0a9ec1dc40C1269afc9E8E1D) contract ran out of USDC during the execution of Proposal 855. The DAO currently has a USDC debt of ~53.5k from both [Proposal 855](https://nouns.wtf/vote/855) and [Proposal 856](https://nouns.wtf/vote/856).

I'm proposing to refill the Payer contract with 200,000 USDC in order to pay down the current debt and leave a buffer for future proposals. The DAO currently has over 900k USDC sitting in the treasury. These funds can be withdrawn back to the Treasury at any point via proposal.

- - -

Historically, transactions were automatically added to proposals to transfer ETH to the Token Buyer, which would eventually be used to fill up the Payer contract. These were turned off as the DAO began to run low on native ETH. Proposals are still requesting USDC from the Payer contract, but without the Buyer contract refills being included.

Proposals can also request USDC directly from the DAO Treasury instead of the Payer for future reference.

# WTF Nounscraft?

![image alt](https://i.imgur.com/ZGzpVcn.gif)

Nounscraft is a **mini gallery** featuring creative DIY activities, art exhibitions, mini games, a space to promote the Nouns brand, and also serves as a meeting place to discuss the Nouns DAO. Mounted on a three-wheeled vehicle, Nounscraft can travel on roads and stop to set up a booth anywhere.  Our customized tuk-tuk with vibrant **Nouns-themed art** and **pop-up booth** turns heads and draws curious visitors everywhere it goes.

Over the past six months, we have successfully provided education at **three schools and foundations**, made regular weekly appearances for **16 times**, **4 schools and orphanages**, and over **500 children** have been delighted by Nounscraft’s arrival. Visitors can paint piggy banks and tote bags—simple, joyful DIY activities that turn into lasting memories.

# What we've done

![image alt](https://i.imgur.com/vUqidoT.jpeg)

- ## We Modified Tuk-tuks into Mini Galleries

    We built the first NFT gallery on a tuk-tuk, making Nounscraft a unique icon that brings Nouns closer to non-web3 users and amazes everyone who sees it.

- ## We make DIY Kits

    We created a DIY kit with a piggy bank, brushes, a palette, and stickers, which **sold out all 250 units**, attracted ongoing orders, and successfully spread to the Nouns community in Indonesia.

- ## We go to the school and orphanages

    In line with Nouns' vision to become a “public good,” we focus on spreading it in schools and foundations. In carrying out this mission, we have visited two schools and two foundations to spread happiness to the children.

  1. [Panti Asuhan Al-Qadri](https://maps.app.goo.gl/bPHPQEChTcaK2X4Y8), March 9, 2025
  2. [TK Negeri 13 Pembina](https://maps.app.goo.gl/crGMg8HgHrHsw4mVA), May 24, 2025
  3. [Bunayya Islamic School Qur'an and Montessori](https://maps.app.goo.gl/w3VKseCDpNq7M42q6), July 19, 2025
  4. [Yayasan Amal Islam Kariango](https://maps.app.goo.gl/HqwLMtPojzycXKpe8), August 4, 2025

    Next, we plan to visit several schools, namely: [TK Angkasa 3](https://maps.app.goo.gl/DNaFRX6qwTij2wRg9), [TKIT Mufti Al Maraghi](https://maps.app.goo.gl/tfMz9BPxcyR1kPG57), [TK Luqman Hakim](https://maps.app.goo.gl/6eNQbqjqHrvKtxuu6), and many more.

- ## We collaborate with other brands

    We have collaborated with brands like [mETH](https://x.com/mETHProtocol) and [Polkadot](https://x.com/Polkadot) by creating DIY tote bags and special booths, showcasing their designs weekly to both promote the brands and boost Nounscraft’s income.
    Next, we plan to collaborate with **Base Indonesia**, **Tokocrypto**, and **Polkadot Indonesia**.

    To diversify Nounscraft’s offerings, which have gained strong interest during three weeks of testing.We introduced new DIY products like:

  - Totebags
  - Bucket hats
  - Slingbag
  - Paint by number canvases
  - Wood keychains

![image alt](https://i.imgur.com/1QxV05v.jpeg)

- ## What do people say about Nounscraft?

  1. “*We are very happy to have Nounscraft here. The children are so enthusiastic about coloring that they even color their clothes*”, **Andi Bunayya, Founder of Bunayya Islamic School and Montessori**.
  2. "T*he first time I saw Nounscraft, I was immediately interested and asked my mom to buy me one. Not only is it beautiful, but I can also freely color this piggy bank*," **Bagas**.
  3. “*As a parent, this is a great medium for honing children's creativity. During CFD, I can run around freely because my child is busy coloring here*”, **Ahmad Habibi**.

# Whats Next?

- ## Sustainability Plan

  - **Community-led product sales**

      By involving the community as co-creators—designing DIY kits, joining art contests, and exhibiting works—Nounscraft fosters ownership that drives organic sales and sustainable revenue.
  - **Weekly visibility = recurring income**

      The more frequently and consistently Nounscraft is seen by the public each week, the greater the opportunity for recurring revenue that keeps the business sustainable. **Weekly Visibility → Engagement → Recurring Income → Sustain**
  - **Timeline**

    ![image alt](https://i.imgur.com/ZvXCMCD.png)

    On this timeline, we have planned a schedule for kids and community activities for the next 6 months, starting in October 2025.
- **Simple Monthly Balance Sheet**

  ![image alt](https://i.imgur.com/rK4NPjR.png)

  The table above shows Nounscraft's income and expenses for the seventh month, during which we were able to generate our own profits and sustainably run the Nounscraft business independently.
- **Shifting Expenses from Funding to Revenue Chart**

# Use Treasury Yield to Sustainably Fund Nounish IRL Events

# TL;DR

[Black Flag Collective](https://blackflagcollective.org/) has been [sustainably retrofunding IRL events for 10 months](https://snapshot.box/#/s:black-flag.eth) using treasury yield.  In that time **we have retrofunded** \~**$2537 USD to 14 hosts who ran 34 events in 14 worldwide locations for 954 attendees.**

This proposal aims to **sustainably fund Nounish IRL events** by giving Nouns holders the ability to propose and vote on monthly IRL community events.  **Retrofunding is entirely yield-based**, which means **no depletion of treasury**.  To accomplish this, **we request 64 ETH** from the Nouns treasury to a ⅔ multisig (monkeydlinks.eth, willywonka.eth, indexcard.eth) which will deposit the funds into the Black Flag Collective PoolTogether yield vaults.  These funds can be withdrawn at any time.  The principal remains untouched, while the yield sustainably funds **Nounish gatherings around the world**, aligning treasury growth with real-world community building.

# URL -> IRL

**In real life (IRL) events aren’t just fun, they’re also culture-building, meme-spreading, DAO catalysts.**  IRL events allow existing community members a place to share and strengthen their work, and provide an easy, friendly way for new community members to get involved.

Nouners have used the power of IRL events in the past - flagship events like Nouns Town, Hacker House @ ETH Denver, Global PizzaDAO Parties, and more intimate events at Farcon have all had a hand in proliferating the brand.

The downside of big, splashy events like the above is that they cost a lot of money, require a lot of effort, and can be difficult to judge in terms of success.  **Monthly community-driven events require less time/money, and provide a strong channel for community engagement, including onboarding more Nouners to the community.**

# How It Works

**1. Nouns Deposit ETH**

- For this proposal, 64 ETH is deposited into a ⅔ multisig (monkeydlinks.eth, willywonka.eth, indexcard.eth)
- The multisig will deposit the ETH into the Black Flag Collective yield vaults.
  - The yield vaults are PoolTogether v5 [USDC](https://basescan.org/token/0x119d2bc7bb9b94f5518ce30169457ff358b47535) and [WETH](https://basescan.org/token/0x23Cd31beEc8980E7F8AEb7E76D45Fe3da4de1592) pools on Base, with AAVE as a yield source.  PoolTogether v5 contracts have been running for 2 years with no breaches.  They were audited by Sherlock, Code4rena, and 0xMacro.
- **Yield is distributed monthly** — principal sits securely in the vault contract.

**2. Community Voting**

- Each month, any Noun holder can [propose to retrofund an IRL event](https://tally.so/r/wLoPov).
- Nouns/BlackFlag voters vote on [Snapshot](https://snapshot.box/#/s:black-flag.eth) to decide which events are retrofunded.
- We expect 0.2 - 0.25 ETH/month to distribute monthly based on current AAVE yields (3%).

**3. Reporting & Impact**

- Hosts must put Nounish branding on their online promotion and post photos of the event online (ie. Farcaster, X, Instagram) to be considered for funding.
- This creates monthly Nounish cultural capital both IRL and online, transparently and sustainably.

# About Black Flag Collective

**[Black Flag Collective](https://blackflagcollective.org/) is a project aimed at fostering IRL connections through sustainable onchain infrastructure**.  We're a community-run collective that helps bridge the gap between URL and IRL through sustainable funding for real-world meetups — without draining treasuries.

Since launch, **we’ve hosted 34 events, empowered 14 different hosts, and brought together 954 attendees across places like Paris, Kyoto, Los Angeles, Toronto, Latvia, Africa**, and more — all curated through open Snapshot voting. Black Flag Collective is a project by the BCard Foundation, which also launched the [Nounish Debit Card](https://getbcard.io/) in the US 2024.

# Why Nouns Should Support This

- 🌍  **Community Growth**: Incentivize IRL gatherings that proliferate the Nouns meme.
- 🥳  **Engagement & Utility**: Noun holders can propose and vote on events on a monthly basis.
- 🪙  **Sustainability**: Funds are not spent, only yield. The principal can be returned at any time.
- 🔎  **Transparency**: Public multisig, onchain payments, open voting.

# Request

We’re requesting a **64 ETH deposit** from the Nouns treasury into the Black Flag Collective PoolTogether vaults, managed by a multisig.  PoolTogether v5 pools have been audited and running for 2 years with no exploits (audited by Sherlock, Code4rena, and 0xMacro). They are drawing yield from AAVE, a battle-tested and trusted collateralized lending protocol.

Let’s make **IRL Nounish vibes inevitable** — one meetup at a time.


# Nouns Breakers competing in Dubai & documentary premiere

## TLDR

- Nouns Breakers invited to compete in Dubai on December 19-20th
- "Nouns Breakers ⌐◨-◨ A Movement" documentary premiere at Nouns Amigos Discord call on September 30th

**Why are there 2 subjects in one prop?** Well, the two go hand in hand. The documentary is the result of [prop 494](https://www.nouns.camp/proposals/494) and the team coming together in 2024. The invitation to Dubai is a unique opportunity and the highlight result of 2025, even with limited resources the team kept representing and elevating the Nouns name around the world. We are honored to be invited ***officially together as a Nouns team for the first time***

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G1hUKZEaoAErU-r?format=jpg&name=large)

In just 2 years since our founding, we've built a collective that consistently represents at the highest level of global competition. Now being recognized with an invitation to Dubai is a milestone that validates our dedication, artistry, and the impact and curiosity we are sparking in the international Breaking community. Competing alongside legendary crews from around the world is not only in high esteem but also an opportunity to showcase the talent and resilience of dancers from Mexico, the U.S., Colombia, Guatemala, Brazil, and Ecuador that are in our team.

![](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/G1h3lPhasAAWWti?format=jpg&name=medium)

To achieve this mission we are seeking partial support to help cover travel expenses for our 8 dancers. Your support will directly empower underrepresented voices in global culture, open doors for new generations of breakers, and spotlight the strength of international collaboration through hip hop and blockchain.
