Noundry Winners & Committee Compensation
This proposal aims to retroactively compensate winning artists and the curation committee of the first Noundry. Total ask of 142.69 eth.
We believe that Noundry compensation is more than a box-ticking exercise. Pixel art is part of who we are; it's in our bones, and adding new pixels to the Descriptor contract is a big deal. It's an opportunity to celebrate nounishness, reinforce our culture, and create new traditions.
We want the Noundry to become a continuous event, a new tradition, and a significant driver of Nouns proliferation within artistic circles. In that light, the compensation outlined in this proposal is not just about the work that was completed, but also about future signaling.
We think one of the most exciting possible outcomes of the Noundry would be if every artist in the world aspires to put their artwork into the Nouns contract (and by extension, the public domain). And while high compensation may not be the primary motivator, it can help initiate the right feedback loop and create the breeding ground needed for future Noundrys to thrive.
Compensation
Winner compensation
https://nouns.wtf/vote/125 (Integrate 8/8 Anniversary Art)
Noundry Season 0 winners are compensated per winning trait. Artists with multiple winning submissions are rewarded for each submission.
Noun Head traits are more generously compensated as they are the most visually striking, tend to create the most excitement within the community, and are responsible for driving much of the Twitter discourse and enthusiasm around the Noundry.
- Head trait winners
- Facu x 3 (Snowman, Vending Machine, Wine Barrel)
- Gremplin x 2 (Capybara, Treasure Chest)
- LuckyCryptoCats x 1 (Hanger)
- Goldy x 1 (Couch)
- Modrovsky x 1 (Index Card)
- Accessory trait winners
- Fuyu x 2 (Uroko, Tatewaku)
- JMA Nountris x 1 (Grease)
Note: Gremplin declined compensation for the two glasses traits added in the upgrade, arguing that there should be a minimum degree of effort required for compensation.
Winning traits compensation
- Heads: 15 eth / trait
- (8 x 15 = 120 eth)
- Accessories: 4 eth / trait
- (3 x 4 = 12 eth)
- Total: 132 eth
Curation committee compensation
The curation committee played a crucial role in making Noundry Season 0 a success. They are compensated for organizing the event, curating, and fine-tuning the winning contributions.
It's hard to put a figure value on the committee's efforts — in many ways it's priceless. We propose compensating the committee with a symbolic sum of 10.69 eth to distribute as they see fit.
- Committee members for Season 0:
- Goldy
- Gremplin

- 9999
- Solimander
- Total: 10.69 eth
