Statements
The proposal has improved quite a bit since the feedback from the previous attempt. I think this is the way the DAO should work.

I mean, its not that big of an ask. I think its worth trying to see if we can get this distributed.

I think we need something similar to what we had with Noun 22 before. I hear the criticisms from other voters, and I think they are reasonable and well thought-out, but I think those are course corrections we can perform down the road. Dont let perfect be the enemy of the good. We needed something like this yesterday. Lets just try it out and see where we go.

I think there is a lot of merit to the arguments against this prop. I myself question if this is a good use of money. However, as a fellow lover of the mountains I am biased towards giving this a go. I am betting on AlpsDAO’s ability to execute and proliferate among other lovers of our beautiful Earth. I think it’s important to invest in cultures that are not profit-driven and more passion-driven. I myself am sick of all the grifting in crypto, and if we can bring good vibes to people enjoying the outdoors, I’m all for it.

I appreciate the honesty and transparency that Victor provided when I had questions about locations, influencer spend, and launch partners. The Jungle discords prop-specific channel was a great place for us to discuss this and Victor answered my questions respectfully... ...even though Im just a random internet person while this guy worked with Kevin Durant, LeBron James, Boston Celtics, and now (potentially)... NOUNS

I was literally on the boat during the last event that fiveoceans hosted. This guy can execute, and therefore I vote yes.

It makes sense for the ecosystem, we need more staking diversity.

Charity and social impact. The reason why I bought two Nouns in the first place. HARD YES.

I like the work Nounish is doing, but it seems like the only people consuming the content are people who already know about Nouns. Ultimately, proliferation means we need to reach new people. The cost of ~$1M is a lot. Im not sure we need 10 people working full time on this. The plan shows $775K for Team Costs, which is about $70K per person for six months. Thats like everyone getting $140K per year, and this all seems too much. I like Nounishs stuff, but I think they need to do a better job of reaching people who dont know about crypto or Nouns. We need to grow, and making stuff just for our current community wont do it. In the end, I dont think the results were seeing are worth $1M.

Im not convinced that a phone made by an independent company can gain the critical mass required to take off and make this a profitable endeavour. I am sympathetic to the creators of this prop, however, I just dont think this is going to work without an existing moat. For example, I feel that even if Oppo or OnePlus did this, it would still flop. Moreover, I recall Samsung having done some significant pushes for a crypto wallet to be built-in to their phones before and yet adoption was quite lacklustre. HTC also famously made a big push about 4 years ago, I even recall seeing their booth at EDCON 2019. I just have too many doubts against the ability of this prop to provoke significant proliferation and mainstream adoption. I am sorry.

I echo everything Salvino said under his vote description. I love Gnars and I love Nouns, but this vote marks the start of a new experiment (if you will) of the DAO evolving to be a bit more careful and efficient with its spending, while setting a precedent that we want to see more structured props going forward. I cannot think of a better team to come back from this and resubmit a bulletproof proposal that will pass with flying colours. I remain 100% faithful in 0xigami and the Gnars crew, and their ability to execute. I look forward to a resubmission soon.

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.
