On September 6, Zach tweeted Really am unsure how much longer I can continue doing this. It’s been fun but burnout is a real thing and it has taken a toll on other aspects of my life [...] To give even more context one single person operates this account, answers DMs, and does the research [...] balancing this isn’t sustainable. If funding his important work exposing grifters and scammers helps to alleviate that burnout and allow him to continue providing this public good for the ETH ecosystem, that will be very nounish imo.

I strongly agree that @ZachXBT is a public good serving the crypto ecosystem. Nouns DAO signaling that we as an organization strongly value this type of work and want to encourage more people to perform their own due diligence and share is publicly feels Nounish. I don’t think Zach needs to acknowledge or brand anything with noggles for this to be a worth while contribution to our space.

Im all for props supporting folks doing good, calling out the bad, and self-regulating the industry, in order to advance things in our crazy corner of the world.

--- **Nouncil Vote Results** --- 43 Yes, 12 No, 3 Abstain 3 Nouncillors abstained from the decision --- **Vote Reasons & Discussion** --- **Benbodhi** *ZachXBT does amazing work and has a solid crypto audience. Probably wise to help fund him for the benefit of the space and some cross promo to his audience.* **JoshuaFisher** *supporting good works is Nounish* **profwerder** *This needs more work & development. What are the deliverables? How does this proliferate the meme? Why not support 0xquit or foobar? Why him? I don’t think that has been explained in this prop OR any support for this particular person’s qualifications. Not fully against this but thats a lot of eth on a vague prop.* **Sasquatch** *zachxbt goat* **Don** *Zach is a the crypto communitys version of super heroes! Easy yes.* **Brook** *- i wish there was more clarity in the proposal - what sort of precedent does it set for others like zach? for example, do nouners up and fund another person who is doing something similar? - it would be nice to hear back from zach about this proposal. his last tweet was on Nov 29, 2022 - it wasnt about this proposal. - what was the rationale behind determining the amount? ^^^ all things that should be thought about as we move forward funding Public Goods / Persons.* **Mach** *zach does great work, will love to continue supporting it* **ThaSwami** *Not enough information provided that clearly defines the use of funds* **JoelCares** *Hell ya - would be proud to support Zachs work.* **RyanMac ⌐◨-◨** *ZachXBT is the Michael Jordan of uncovering crypto grifers & scammers. I’ve followed his work for a long time & he works off donations. About 3 months ago he almost quit bc he was making zero revenue & mentally taxed. The space needs more ZachXBTs bc we have so many bad actors right under our noses. This is a 100% yes vote on my end: hopefully this helps him add more players to his roster* **Mindtoasted** *This is quite a big amount, but from how detailed Zach investigated and exposed several projects in the past this could be a good new insight for Nouns. Lately I personally follow several influential Twitter figures who provide concrete information both good and bad in the crypto space, in fact we need people like this so I vote yes.* **Graphic.⌐◨-◨** *Looking through Twitter I see a lot of examples of Zach exposing a lot of bad actors in the

The author proposes that Nouns, a crypto ecosystem, donates 100 ETH to ZachXBT, a public good that exposes scams in the crypto world. The author acknowledges past controversies around donations wit hin Nouns governance but argues that exceptions should be made for urgent public causes.
