    1000 ETH is too high, especially upfront in one tranche and when Zora has its own treasury. Would reconsider if tranched into milestones/deliverables and lower aggregate ETH amounts. Tool is wonderful.

    We are big fans of Builder and Zora, but we would love to see some traction or more details on how they would deploy the capital (criteria, vetting, etc). We would encourage the team to provide more details and/or lower their initial ask with the intention to return for a larger ask once there is demonstrable traction in the market.

    1000 ETH is too high. Love the product, but Prop House could have been utilized to build this tool several times over for that amount. A lot of talented builders would have jumped at the opportunity to build this for far less. Zora has raised at least $50MM and is now requesting that Nouns bootstrap the treasury of a DAO that may or may not see any traction. Assuming Zora will control Builder DAO for awhile. What will the funds be used for? Will there be a vote by builder DAO to reimburse Zora? Unfortunately there are too many questions for me to vote yes on such a big ask.
    0 references
    Plenty of forks exist, this tool is only to bring the lowest effort forks into being. This will bring little to no new builders. Prop house is MUCH higher ROI. Generally speaking, we could do much more with $1.5M. Further, Zora got $50M to build tooling - why do they need a one-off payment of $1.5M from nouns? This is a disservice to both their investors and their business. They should seeking subscriptions for their tools, not more one-off vc-style funding.

    Im voting NO on virtually all proposals (with high ETH asks) for the foreseeable future. Lets spend our time and our resources on prop house, thats where we can get the best bang for our buck.

    devcarrot: I recommend we vote No on this proposal because Nouns Builder is early in its lifecycle and I havent seen much firm information on the charter or direction for Nouns Builder DAO in regards to what its treasury should be used for aside from generalize-able Nounish tooling. At the same time, the new Nouns Builder DAO would have a risk of fund extraction. Even though a veto power exists, this power comes with a coordination cost if secured correctly. Having a large imbalance between the auction proceeds and the DAOs treasury early on in the process feels dangerous to me. Id be amenable if this were a smaller initial seed, the NounsDAO were to follow on by amplifying proposals/prop-house rounds/grant pools/etc. after the Nouns Builder DAO is formed, or the NounsDAO were to purchase Nouns Builder DAO votes during the auction. 9999: Thanks to Zora for effort and dedication to building with Nouns. I’m voting against because I feel this proposal and Builder DAO itself need refinements before an ask of this size. My concerns are these: If this tool truly needs to be a DAO the market will signal as such using the auction price of its governing NFTs. Just like all other Nounish DAOs, Builder should grow its community and treasury from natural demand and develop its ecosystem with people who understand its vision. If the tool is not meant to be a DAO, then with no proven track-record, the ask for 1000ETH to jump-start demand is overkill. All other large scale, long-term projects/pods have started small and demonstrated demand before asking for outsized funding (See [Prop House Protocol: Public Infrastructure by Nouns DAO](https://discourse.nouns.wtf/t/prop-house-protocol-public-infrastructure-by-nouns-dao/1594) as cited in this proposal). Builder currently has no metrics to match the size of this ask. The Zora team should decide which approach to take. If the former, it doesn’t make sense to come to Nouns DAO for a treasury injection. If the latter, the project should first gather momentum before an ask of this size can be considered a hell yes. Thanks again.

    Seeding Builder DAO with 1000 ETH does not feel maximally nounish to me. I believe that Builder DAO should use their own tool, launch their own DAO, and raise the funds via their own daily auction. Have more faith in the tool, the protocol, etc., and lead by example. Presumably, every other DAO that launches with this tool will attempt to raise the majority of their capital via the auctions just as the OG Nouns DAO has done. So it seems odd to me that the DAO governing the tool is circumventing the mechanic their own tool provides to raise the majority of their capital. Even something like Auction #1 going to Nouns DAO for 1000 ETH sits better with me than just sending the 1000 ETH over. ⌐◨-◨

    24 yes, 25 No, 3 Abstain ___ **SuperTightWoody** ONE THOUSAND ETH....BRO We could buy a country **Mach** id prefer to start with a smaller seed if anything to see viability and how it evolves it is pretty exciting to think about the potential of this **profwerder** BIG ASK --- but tremendous what has been created and its a set tool that will exist forever. Is it a crazy amount of $? yeah but I think this is an insane value. I changed my vote to NO but its truly just because of the ask. If we can get this prop revised to a better place, Ill be a yes again. Best scenario would be funding distributed over time and/or tied to milestones. **Sidenoun** I think the ask is of a significant amount. I’m clearly not alone in thinking so. As a developer, I’m very appreciative of the work that goes into any project, let alone one that has this type of deliverable. The ZORA team are of course a team that I’d vote for. However, that said and with some of the comments on the Nouncil call regarding the hefty request. I think, it’d make some sense to potentially gradually retrospectively reward as we see the success of the protocol roll out to more DAO’s. I can’t cite who made the comment regarding marketing, but I feel that’s probably something that this prop is missing in terms of information. Not just for Nouns, but for those opting to use it. **systemdm.⌐◨-◨** I think this is an amazing Change the world kind of thing!!! ✊🏻✊🏻✊🏻 **andrewladdusaw** Im shocked at how confident I feel in this 1000 ETH ask. Jacob is a thought leader in the entire space. Zora is one of the premier orgs in the space. They are already heavily invested with 20 Nouns of their own. They have already delivered the product on their own dime. PLUS, this is not a retro reward, its funding a DAO with the goal of furthering the incredible work thats already been done. Im trying not to speak in hyperbole here, but I think this has the potential to be a really special thing, not just for Nouns, but the future of crypto. Im still not 100% on where I land on this. All my previous comments still stand on my belief in the tool and the team. I still think its going to be game changer. I originally told them I thought a huge retro should be offered for a free tool, but that amount in my mind was like 250. When you factor the audit costs they referenced as well, Id be closer to 350-400. Admittedly, I h

    I like the builder and the potential for more external proliferation, but this is a no for me in its current form. Yes, its a lot of money but the overall structure of the proposal is vague and not exciting on paper. I think a proposal this large (if it has the votes internally or not) should help with making the community understand what they are doing and why its exciting. There are numerous ways to do this via videos, spaces, interviews or AMA in a Discord etc. The other thing I would have liked to see is a smaller ask up front with benchmarks and timeline for additional funding periods. This is going to pass and I am actually excited to see the potential outward proliferation here, would like to see others in the community excited as well via a communicative proposal layout with community engagement ❤️ #Ugly

    Im not convinced that we should be making a binary decision on this. Nor am I convinced that they need all 1000 ETH right away to bootstrap the DAO. My biggest concern with this proposal is that its all or nothing. this is a common issue with Nouns proposals. I would much prefer a more milestone-based approach when proposals are being written. I know thats not built into the system right now, but perhaps proposals asking for a large amount can be split up into several smaller ones.

    This is one of the highest leverage props being worked on right now. Yes, the ETH outlay *is* high for us, but sincerely believe this idea is a bet worth making and this team is the one to bet on to do it. The success case: This product spawns thousands of *high-quality* nounish DAOs. Each success will further cement nouns as the OG, which is recognized for inventing a new form factor for collective action. The failure case: we spend ~15 days of treasury sales Zora is making a huge bet on Nouns — and I can’t tell you how thrilled I am to see such a high-caliber team bet on nouns the way they have. Resounding yes

    As many people have expressed in their vote reasons and discussions in Nouncil and on The Noun Square this week, the 1000ETH ask DOES initially feel high, and has made many (myself included) think twice about supporting the proposal in its current form. However, I think what Noun40 said in his reason sums up where I have landed, in framing this as a “very ambitious rather than a greedy proposal. As he points out, the ETH will not be earmarked for retroactive development, but rather paid forward to the new DAO to drive new nounish proliferation. So, while I would have preferred a smaller ask or a stream for risk management reasons, I do think Zora has proven their alignment (by purchasing 20 Nouns and building free infra for the DAO) and I think we should take a chance and afford them this ambitious mandate to match and magnify the impact of Prop House on the ecosystem. Over the past week, I have heard of at least 6-7 people anecdotally in my circles with plans to use the builder imminently for various projects and I think it can play a really important role as a 1-click-align-with-nouns tool, especially when paired with Prop House mandates and strategic builder funding going forward. I also want to say that I think the future success of the DAO depends greatly on allocating funds to a bigger number of trusted groups, who can do more targeted allocation than the DAO as a whole can do with on-chain proposals alone. This is what makes flexible pools like NSFW important. Its what makes Prop House so damn effective. Its what makes The Noun Square contests and challenges so Ev+. And so likewise, I think (hope) that having a talented, ambitious and fully-aligned team like Zora allocating capital to an even broader pool of builders alongside the above initiatives will hopefully help bring nounish proliferation to the next level. For that reason, Im voting YES with my delegated votes.

    I have been a very outspoken supporter of the Builder tool for some time, and I view it as a potential piece of core infra to scaling the Nouns protocol. However, like many others, my initial reaction was that the 1000 ETH to bootstrap the DAO is a major ask - one that the DAO needs to carefully consider. After discussing this in depth with the team and other Nouners, I am comfortable voting yes on this exciting and ambitious proposal.

    Unlocking this tool for communities/builders without a technical background is a huge value add for help Nouns proliferate the meme as well as the DAO mechanisms we know and love. Im excited to look back on this a year/years from now and see what the most successful/prominent new communities that have spawned from this tool that may have been unable to do so without it.

    Hesitant YES as we shouldnt be funding 1000 ETH proposals without more validation of the idea. We could have done this one in 2-3 installments. Decided to vote YES because the Zora team holds >20 Nouns and is a respectable member of the community.

    I disagree with takes that 1000 ETH is some outlandish / greedy move by Zora. This is a free open source protocol they are committing to building that would directly help proliferate nouns. They have put in 4 months of their product development time already + 100 ETH to the code audit and are NOT asking to be retroactively compensated for their dev costs but rather for a commensurate commitment from us to help fund an endowment of this public good. The funding will go to further build and proliferate the protocol. They are financially aligned with nouns by owning 20 nouns themselves. This is a fair, well-aligned, ambitiously nounish situation, and I wholeheartedly vote FOR.

    This is a large sum to seed a sub dao with. But I think it could lead to substantial bids to help grow the treasury in a meaningful way and potentially fund some amazing work into the future. The fact that’s it’s a treasury seed and not compensation for such an immense task is testament to the team’s nounishness imo ⌐◨-◨

    Nouns builder is one of the most ambitious projects to come out of Nouns, and one of our best shots at proliferating the meme far beyond its reach today. Already, Purple DAO has proliferated the Nounish meme to a new community focused on an entirely different mission, and I expect many more of these to come. 1000 ETH is without a doubt a big ask, but if anything, the size makes more more excited than not – especially given the fact that its used to fund the Builders DAO vs retro-paying the Zora team. As Nouns DAO gets bigger, we must also scale up the size of our bets in order to keep having meaningful impact relative to our size– and I can think of no better team than Zora to carry out such an initiative.

    this is a big ask which obviously comes with a big risk. but im optimistic on where Nouns Builder and the projects that come out of it will lead us, and on the builders that will be creating exciting, new tools through prop house & builder dao.

    Nouns Builder is an ambitious multidisciplinary effort that will allow a variety of communities to experiment with nounish models. This is a great way to both proliferate the meme and test new DAO parameters in production. Although the funding requested is large, it is commensurate with the work involved and the plan for allocating funds is well-reasoned. The world is a better place with more nounish DAOs.

    Definitely one of the more existential proposals so far. I love the development of open source, scalable infrastructure. Ive had a couple of issues with the website but think theyll get sorted out easily. It begs the question for Nouners: what should the revenue model of these third parties be? Can people expect to build open source stuff and be compensated by Nouns, or will these third-party platforms expect to monetize thru subscriptions/ads/etc? Weve had some of the same questions at Collective/House of Nouns.
