I hope you had a great week!
We’re almost 250 strong in this weekly newsletter and would love to keep growing its reach. Please consider helping by retweeting today’s post here. 🙏
ETH popped a bit this week, and our treasury hit 7 figures again, so we will ride that momentum right into the Halloween fun we have planned for Lil Nouns.
•••
Here’s what we cover in this week’s post:
→ Lil Pumpkins Halloween Event
→ Lil Carving Contest
→ Lil Al became a Nouns Delegate!
→ Current Proposals
→ Prop House: Round 10 Winners
→ Around the Lil Community
→ Events
[Reminder: if there is something that is a lil nounish that you’d like featured in an upcoming newsletter post, drop a line in the #newsletter-channel in the Lil Nouns Discord!]
Alright, let’s dive in.
→ Lil Pumpkins Halloween Event
It’s happening. Pick up a pumpkin (or two) on auction tomorrow! Let’s see how big of a (lil) pumpkin patch we can create together.
We have some Halloween fun in store for you on October 31st starting at Midnight UTC 🎃
You may notice some lil pumpkin-heads popping up on auction at lilnouns.wtf 👀

→ Lil Carving contest
Submissions end today at 5 pm EST! There are only 18 submissions right now.

There will be 15 winners chosen – submissions end today!
→ Lil Al became a Nouns Delegate!
I wanted to take a minute to publicly congratulate our very own Lil Al, as he became an official Nouns delegate. This is a big deal and I’m excited to see the impact I know he’ll have on making both Lil Nouns, and Nouns, better.
In case you missed it, here is the blurb he submitted:
If you haven’t already, congratulate him on Twitter and Discord!
→ Current Proposals
There is only one proposal this week: Prop 67.
This is a proposal to:
set ‘Voting Delay’ to be 2 days. This is a minor change that accounts for block times changing to 12 seconds after the merge.
set ‘Voting Period’ to 5 days, so that nouners have more time to diligence proposals and to decide how they will vote.
Get out there and vote today to get this to quorum!
→ Prop House: Round 10 Winners
20 winners were selected at 0.50 ETH each yesterday.
Check them all out here in this amazing Twitter thread:
– 65 proposals were received
– 482 votes were cast by Lil Nouns DAO members
Thank you to all who applied, and congratulations to the winners (warning: long thread ahead) 👇
Big congrats to all of the winners of Round 10! (I can’t believe we’ve already gone through 10 rounds!)

1/ Put .⌐◨-◨ in your Twitter headline
Let’s proliferate the meme by adding your “.⌐◨-◨” name (Nouns Naming Service) to your Twitter account!
Even our godfather, 4156, has joined in on the action this week:
Don’t have your “.⌐◨-◨ name” yet?
Follow Nouns Name Service on Twitter, and get your .ETH registered as .⌐◨-◨. You can join their Discord if you have questions.
Then, slap that bad boy on your Twitter account so that we can start creeping up this list! (We’re behind Binance right now… that ain’t right!)

Thanks to TriggityTron.⌐◨-◨ (I see you with the “.⌐◨-◨” name on Twitter) for leading the charge here.
