It always feels a little off when event sponsorship proposals show up just a week before the event. It makes it seem like Nouns is just an afterthought, used more as a last-minute way to cover costs rather than something they truly wanted to build around.

Events should be proposing months in advance so the broader community has time to actually get excited and contribute. It also gives the proposer time to hit proper production timelines and lets us, as a DAO, actually maximize the opportunity.

I feel we are sufficiently covered with Farcon, spending additional funds feels like marginal gains. Which is a bit unfair to any prop that comes later. We essentially are building a world where IRL activations are based on who can submit a prop first. In the future I think we should look at our IRL activations as a whole, how much do we want to spend on ex: Devconnect 2025 Argentina. And instead of blowing our load at the first thing that looks interesting we get a bunch of ideas forming and then we fund the ones that seem the most concrete or more matches what we are after. This will make things fairer.

With this being so close to Farcon, its lacking a lot of details tbh.

I like the team but I think it's just too late for nouns to benefit from this activation. Plus we already have a significant presence at FarCon.

I think the timing is just too tight for this event but would to see how Nouns can get involved in their upcoming events this summer

Would love to see and hear since I can’t be there!

I photographed that Offchain party back in the day and it was a blast. I know it was the height of the 2021 bull, but it just made me feel so hopefully about web3. We need more of that.

Wanted to welcome everyone OFFCHAIN and hope this prop finds you all well! I think our project represents a real opportunity to marry the counterculture of the onchain world with the nouns universe, especially when we all represent these interests in real life. We’re skateboarders, musicians, artists, and at the same time some of us are moms & dads, uncles, teachers... It takes a lot to coordinate something as special as we were able to do in two weeks, especially with most of our core team in all different timezones around the world.

I thank everyone for the criticisms regarding vote proximity to the event. I will say I’d love to see us come back to a web3 where we can can move great ideas at lightning speed. For what it costs to activate all these great partners and their crews, the cultural return on content capture alone is a value prop far cheaper than any traditional projects you’d find at the same scale in the normal world. There’s a lot to gain from this turn-key event especially for a decentralized entity that is selective about spend-to-return ratio, whether that is cultural capital or money in the bank.

Now that the TREV Talk is out of the way, I’ll be sharing a bunch of updates from OFFCHAIN as it stands (as of posting) with some changes/announcements the core team would like to make immediately.

• We will no longer be presenting the skate jam with HIGHER. Some of our HIGHER friends will be joining us on the day, but just as friends! The event will now be now as the OFFCHAIN Skatejam and will be open to all!

• We will now be allocating a portion of the skate jam budget into creating a GNARS approved noggle rail to be left permanently in for the local skaters. It will be the first nounstacle to be made in NYC.

• We will no longer be using Noun Coffee for the skate jam. Instead, we will source local NYC bagels (it's the water they tell us), pastries, juice and coffee for our skaters and guests. The remainder we will allocate towards helping rail welder costs.

• Our friends at BASED GHOULS will be co-presenting the Flowers for Memories stand, on the condition that I used dried (dead) flowers for the arrangements. I have agreed to these terms.

More news to come. Thanks again nouns! Hope to see you all in NYC! 🌊🌻

Signaling for ~ love errorgardener and the noun coffee team, and I think the Park, Refraction etc have proven their value very strongly in the past.

gm Nouns! I've been on the outside looking in for the past few years and this is my first opportunity to create with Nouns. Tbh, I've never known how to get involved and haven't had the means to join by bidding on a Noun. So I'm very grateful to be here and have this event series considered for funding.

One thing that I've always admired about Nouns is the goal of benefitting the world offchain. I've been working hard on the Skate Jam and see it as a really fun way to bring local NYers into the onchain narrative. There are a handful of women skate crews that are being invited and I would love to show them how Nouns can be the source of inclusivity, especially onchain.

Like errorgardener already mentioned, the Higher allocation on the prop will be re-allocated to Gnars and a local NY welder to build a noggles rail.

There will be some incredible media that comes from this event series. I'm working with creatives who will film and produce a 90s style skate film post-NYC.

Imo, this series isn't necessarily about FarCon but more about activating while we're all in New York and can involve as many locals as possible. Thank you for reading and for your consideration on approving this proposal. I'm glad to finally be experiencing Nouns from the inside.

If you have any Skate Jam related questions, please feel free to get in touch! Happy Friday ⌐◨-◨
