Welcome to the Lil Nouns Weekly Newsletter #15! ⌐◨-◨ The Merge is behind us, and the Lil Nouns community is stronger than ever! There has been a lot of activity in the Lil Nouns Community lately, so there’s a lot to recap this week. Here’s what we cover in this week’s post:
→ Lil Block Party
→ Proposals
→ Prop House – Round 7
→ 7th Noun Acquired
→ 7 Highlights from the Lil Community
→ Events
But, before we go any further, I wanted to thank everyone who has voted for our Proposal (Prop 48) to continue shipping the Lil Nouns Weekly Newsletter every Sunday.
If you have not voted, we would very much appreciate it if you vote to continue the Weekly Newsletter—voting ends today, and we need a few more votes to hit Quorum!
Alright, let’s dive in.
→ Lil Block Party
You’ve probably noticed that the implementation of a Reserve Price has created some unique dynamics. One of those, is that when you settle an auction, with the intention of bidding on the next auction, you don’t know which Lil Noun will pop up next. And you may not like the one that goes up for auction next. Until now. Enter: Lil Block Party.
Shout out to Branigan for putting this together.

→ 7th Noun Acquired
Treasury is looking nice, even for a bear market. Our family of Nouns continues to grow, as we purchased a Shark at auction last week.
This week, there was a terrific conversation about acquiring Nouns and working more closely with the Nouns DAO. If you’re curious about why we are buying Nouns, and the pros and cons, give it a read.
