1. What are Nouns NFTs?
1.1. Overview of Nouns NFTs
Nouns NFTs is an innovative project within the NFT space, leveraging the Ethereum blockchain. Each Noun NFT depicts a character, sized at 32x32 pixels, meticulously crafted from a diverse array of components. These components include various body types, accessories such as 242 head styles and 140 accessories, along with 32 body variations, 23 types of glasses, and assorted backgrounds.
The initial Nouns NFT went up for auction on August 8, 2021, portraying a fox-shaped head adorned with two-tone glasses in shades of purple and pink. Owners of Noun NFTs are granted full rights to utilize the images of their NFTs in any manner they choose.
1.2. Unique Minting Mechanism
Diverging from traditional approaches, Nouns NFTs introduce a highly distinctive minting mechanism. As of now, only 1054 Noun NFTs are in circulation, commanding a Floor price of up to 5.9 ETH/NFT in the market.
To fortify the growth of the entire Nouns ecosystem, the Nounders are set to benefit from the issuance of Noun NFTs. Specifically, for every 10th Noun NFT minted within the project's initial 5 years, it will be directed to the multisig wallet of the Nounders. Subsequently, it will be gradually unlocked and distributed among the founding members.
2.2. Nouns DAO
Owning a Noun NFT enables holders to engage in the governance and operation of Nouns DAO. This entails proposing initiatives and voting on proposals from other community members. Upon achieving majority approval, these proposals will be automatically executed within a single transaction on the Ethereum network.
To initiate a new proposal, users must possess a minimum of 2 Noun NFTs. Throughout its founding period, Nouns DAO has supported numerous creative endeavors, including fashion collections, Super Bowl advertisements, and more.
Users can monitor proposals within Nouns DAO here.
Moreover, Nouns DAO will receive 100% of the ETH from Daily Auctions. At the time of writing, Nouns DAO Treasury holds 5597 ETH (equivalent to 19,751,813 USD).
3. Introduction of Lil Nouns
The high price and limited quantity of Noun NFTs present significant barriers for users seeking to engage with this community. Therefore, the Lil Nouns project, initiated by Oxsvg and adelidusiam, has been launched to provide a more accessible entry point for the community with a more suitable price point.
Lil Nouns is a collection of adorable "mini" Nouns with a smaller size of just 16x16 pixels. Every 15 minutes, users have the opportunity to participate in auctions and create their own Lil Noun.
