Goals for the next 3 months Scaling our protocol + transition to L2 Short term:

Replace Zora API dependencies with subgraph

Rework the frontend to support any EVM-compatible rollup for nouns.build or community deployments

Handle L2 deployments on all major EVM-compatible rollups

Medium term:

Build protocol upgrades/extensions to allow opt-in migration of current DAOs to L2s

Conduct an audit on the new protocol via Code4rena

Long term:

Explore the potential for hybrid L2 → L1 systems for DAOs that prefer to keep NFTs on L1 Scaling our engineering community Nouns Builder open source infinite rounds for community frontend work

Open round to fund nouns.build frontend work

Community devs make contributions then submit to the infinite round for funding

Funding based on # of merged prs / issue impact

Onboard new developers to the frontend repo, review code submissions, and ensure that winners have submitted valid pull requests

Nouns Builder hack week dev track

Have community developers experiment with different scaling solutions for our protocol

Initial migration implementations

Hybrid L2 → L1 system ideas

Alternate solutions

Onboard new developers to the protocol repo and judge protocol extensions/upgrades

Regular Product and Engineering public sessions

Sessions hosted by Neokry and Isaac that cover current product and engineering developments and are open to the community

These sessions allow the community to gain insight into the Nouns Builder product discussions / roadmap and to ask questions / provide input

Funding Request $16,830 USD / Month for 3 months (9 ETH/ month)

Total of $50,490 USDC streamed via Sablier (Total ~27 ETH @ $1873 ETH/USD price)

Changes made to original draft based on DAO feedback:

• Removing token compensation (6 Builder tokens) to prevent voting power centralization and accrual of influence through residencies

• Increasing USDC compensation from 8.5ETH to 9ETH to account for expanded residency scope that mainly includes critical solidity work for successful L2 transition

Multisig *The equivalent of ~$55k (to absorb potential volatility in ETH from time period between submission and execution) would be sent to a multisig as outlined below. They would then convert $50,490 worth of ETH to USDC, set up the Sablier stream and then send back the remaining ETH to the DAO.
