A Look Back

In June 2022 the @nounsbuilder first came to life on twitter.

Nouns Builder @nounsbuilder

DAO + NFT + Auction = ⌐◨-◨

After ~4 months of development time, the first Nouns Builder DAO auction launched on November 15th.

The Builder DAO was created using the Nouns Builder tool and protocol. It is the entity on-chain that will be responsible for funding the proliferation of the ecosystem and the development of the protocol over time.

The Nouns Builder DAO treasury was seed funded with 1000 ETH via Proposal #167 from Nouns DAO. Like Nouns DAO, the cadence equals one auction a day. See here for current and previous auctions. Find out more here.
