• When two Aminals reproduce, an auction decides the newborn's genes.
• Voting power in this auction comes from the "love" felt by the two parents towards the voter (love-o-cracy): If the parents are deeply attached to you, your vote on its child's genetics is very powerful. If parents barely know you, your vote is weak.

• At the moment of birth, it receives its inheritance: 10% of Parent A's treasury + 10% of Parent B's treasury.
• This inheritance is immediately and automatically divided into 8 equal shares and distributed as a royalty payment to the on-chain owners of the 8 winning Gene NFTs.

• In a love-o-cracy, voting power comes from care, not token holdings: the more you feed an Aminal, the more the Aminal loves you, giving you more influence on its behaviours and evolutionary dynamics
• Every action that you request from an Aminal costs you their love (because Aminals will like you less, every time you ask them to do anything)
• Love is also necessary in order to vote on the traits that will be inherited by the baby Aminal when two Aminals reproduce: the more love the parents have for you, the greater the influence you have on their progeny

• NB: we are in touch by e-boy (early Nouns designers)

• Nouns DAO benefits because it gets a direct cash royalty every time the community uses its collective "love" to vote for Noggles to be inherited by a newborn Aminal.
• This turns the Nouns brand into a perpetual, automated revenue stream powered by the Aminals ecosystem.

GLITCH sponsorship fee: $10,000 = Access to residency, lodging, meals for 2 delegates

Smart contract audit: $4,000 = Security review before mainnet deployment

(e-boy) Nouns genetics design: $3,000 = Custom Nouns-themed traits for Aminals

Research/documentation: $2,000 = RA time for brief, video editing, community content

Contingency: $1,000 = Travel, unexpected technical costs

• Yes, because we're building something together that neither community could build alone. Aminals is Nounish in spirit (CC0, proliferation, governance) but designed at Glitch (experimental, artistic, boundary-pushing). The royalties flow back to Nouns DAO. The research informs future Nouns strategy. The relationships last beyond the residency.

• Revenue via genetics royalties + open-source protocol + research brief + embedded delegates

• We're committing to updates during residency, post-residency AMA, integration plan with measurable outcomes, and 2 full-time delegates embedded for co-creation.

• We believe the two communities have very aligned values and ideologies. Nouns DAO has always been about experimentation, proliferation, and public goods. GLITCH - and Aminals in particular - embodies these values in a radically new way: removing speculation while creating sustainable revenue, replacing plutocracy with care, and open-sourcing everything for others to build on. Together, we want to co-develop infrastructure for post-speculative NFTs that will benefit Nouns and the crypto-art ecosystem as a whole

• Hopefully, we have articulated much clearer deliverables !
