Vote Reasons & Discussion
RyanMac ⌐◨-◨ | "David Horvaths business acumen is next level. The deliverables on this prop & ask is plenty reasonable for someone of his creative stature"
Classic_Craig | "Ive been torn on the toy/animated front for nouns, since the average person doesn’t have a frame of reference and wont know whay theyre looking at. Im more inclined to back Seth Green’s company for things like this. 😝"
JoshuaFisher | "when this train reaches its destination the celebration is going to be unreal! ⌐◨-◨"
Josep | "I believe in the vision in David and it seems to me that Korea has enough potential that it makes sense to invest $200,000 in trying to open up that market."
Bigshot Klim | "I hve worked with David for years and have had the opportunity to travel with him to Japan and Korea to see and understand his vision and I think that what he is doing with the Nouns is unique and brilliant . I can not wait to see where he takes the Project in the next year"
kerimbonia | "if the goal of nouns is to proliferate then david horvath's track record combined with what he did with the ugly dolls brand working all of 2023 to breaking nouns into the japanese and asian markets = hell yes from me!"
Mindtoasted | "I am curious about the outcome of this Nounish plan, especially from David who have experienced around this field. It's clear that he has a unique perspective and approach. I voted yes on this."

Really enjoyed watching the video and hearing about all that's been done here so far, thanks David! Super exciting to have you engaged with Nouns.
I wish that we could put a bit more structure on the prop: more specific goals and TODOs. Someone mentioned re-upping on a quarterly basis which I think could be interesting. But, voting FOR still because I am excited about all that's been done so far and think that if we have a chance to work with top talent we shouldn't let planning get in the way too much. Seems like lots of asymmetric payoff opportunities for Nouns here!
I have no idea how this industry works at all and cant really assess the prop but a lot of people seem to like it so im abstaining.
I am glad there is someone else in the DAO who is even more long winded in their replies than me :)
I also have no idea why I am spending $15 in gas to abstain...
Appreciate the work and expertise brought in by David, would love to see more public identify themselves with Nouns
I look forward to seeing all the great nounish things that come from this studio. ⌐◧-◧
