As great as it is to see more stablecoin adoption as “validation” of cryptos utility, the experimental phase of crypto was much much more fun to be a part of.
I miss nouns, I miss cool non grifty projects like loot, the idea of a composable and open data layer is so much more interesting than letting dropshippers save a few nips on their Shopify stores
Post founder fatigue hit fc hard. Wish it weren’t true but this place doesn’t feel as strong as it did when Dan and co were around. Feels like they gave us, and by doing so took the wind out of the sails and put the nail in the coffin
Multiple crypto products pivoting to AI. Nothing left here but stablecoins. Maybe this was always the eventual fate, but it sucks

gifting folks with no prior record of action in governance nouns has proven to be unsuccessful
prop 542 - nouns to seth, eric, chris, neil
"Their participation in governance will have a significant impact on our community"
noun 336 - no votes :(
noun 67 - 15 votes, 2 vwr
noun 774 - 6 votes, no vwrs
noun 69, no votes :(
prop 525 - noun to john hamon
"If awarded noun 778, John is eager to participate in governance, expressing interest in delegating his Noun to community members who support creative initiatives."
noun 778 - no votes :(
prop 521 - matt downey
noun 301 - 69 votes :), no vwrs :(
would still consider this a success though
prop 610 - lets play nouns
noun 895 - 6 votes
noun 863 - 3 votes
noun 754 - 6 votes

some sobering stats:
total treasury: 5329 ETH
30 day spend: 536 ETH
30 day auction revenue: 172 ETH
loss: 364 ETH
months until treasury hits 0 at current spend: 14.6
think about this when voting on large proposals
