Public Nouns DAO supports public goods by auctioning one NFT every 12 hours, generating a continuous stream of ETH for its treasury. This funding mechanism ensures a steady flow of resources, which are allocated to various projects through a transparent governance process. Community members discuss proposals on Discord, refine them on the forum, and vote on viable ideas on-chain, with each NFT representing one vote. Initial funding was bootstraped through these auctions, leveraging community decision-making to align projects with the DAO's mission of promoting public goods.
