Gnars are a new way to fund extreme athletes
We prefer a world where kids aren't sold energy drinks by their heroes. So as a community of action sports enthusiasts, we've formed a DAO to rethink how extreme athletes get sponsored.
Gnars are NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain
Based on Nouns open source and CC0 artwork, they're stored fully on-chain with no external dependencies. Each one gets you a DAO vote and memberships are available at auction, forever.
Joe Atkinson takes home a win!
Gnars inline skater Joe Atkinson just took out the European Championships! Check out some highlights in the tweet thread below. We are so excited to have an amazing athlete like Joe representing Gnars at such an elite level on the world stage. Looking forward to many more 🤘

Coming soon!
Over a 12 week pilot period, we'll be prompting skaters, boarders, riders (all extreme sports) to share their most creative (and Extremely nounish) tricks. Each week a guest judge from Team Gnars will help promote and choose winners based on creativity and flair. It's a loose proof of concept for a global expression session hosted atop hashtags across various social media.

Public Nouns is a new Nouns extension focused on supporting Public Goods. Public goods require new ways of sourcing funding so Public Nouns DAO will focus on identifying and funding projects whose outputs are practically useful, non-excludable and non-rivalrous. As Nouns DAO has done, Public Nouns will harness the power of memes as a tools for co-creating shared identity, with a focus on public goods. Check out their manifesto here.
*Public Goods* is more than just a meme@nounsdao (https://t.co/GlcHLPBUGI) is an epic experiment on #Ethereum

Nounlets, mentioned in last weeks newsletter, have been a hot topic in the Nouniverse as of late. Inspired by Punk4156’s tweet, NanoNouns have been born. NanoNouns subdivide Nounlets even further, creating 10 NanoNouns per Nounlet. The experimentation around Nouns and decentralized governance is getting more and more interesting, what will be next? 👀
