The highly anticipated Nouns Builder Bali Upgrade is finally here, and it’s packed with innovative features and enhancements designed to take decentralized organization customization and governance to new heights. In this newsletter, we’ll dive into the key features of the Bali Upgrade, provide details on the upcoming Launch Week events, and share some insights into what these upgrades mean for our community.
Key Features of the Bali Upgrade
Sustainable Growth with Protocol Fees:

With the introduction of Protocol Fees, a percentage of auction revenue is now allocated back to bid referrals, DAO founders, and BuilderDAO. This ensures sustainable growth and development within the ecosystem.
-
Token Claiming to Seed New DAOs:
-
Creators can now reserve tokens during the DAO creation process using merkle proofs. This feature simplifies the seeding process for new communities, allowing DAOs to kickstart their operations with preset member lists.

Collection+ Unlocking Governance for Other Collections:
-
The Bali Upgrade introduces Collection+, enabling DAO founders to grant governance to any NFT collection. This expands governance possibilities and encourages collaboration with a diverse range of communities.

Say goodbye to high gas fees! The L2 Migration Deployer allows L1 DAOs to deploy and seed DAOs on Layer 2 networks, promoting broader community participation and scalability.
