Gnars are a new way to fund extreme athletes

We prefer a world where kids aren't sold energy drinks by their heroes. So as a community of action sports enthusiasts, we've formed a DAO to rethink how extreme athletes get sponsored.

Gnars are NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain

Based on Nouns open source and CC0 artwork, they're stored fully on-chain with no external dependencies. Each one gets you a DAO vote and memberships are available at auction, forever.

Gnars are dedicated to supporting the artistry of extreme athletes


News and Updates

Gnars are Extremely Nounish🤘

Our latest proposal to Nouns DAO is live and voting has commenced! Proposal 189 requests 694.20 ETH for Gnars to continue our extreme proliferation through activations like I LOVE XV in Brazil, but all around the world. The proposal has been the center of some contentious debates, but it has sparked a discussion about the future of Nouns that is certainly a critical one. If you haven’t yet, please take the time to read it! It’s definitely one for the history books.

Meme value or book value? Why not both :~) A groundbreaking proposal for Nouns DAO itself to mint the viral Nouns explainer video it commissioned. Should it pass, the DAO will release this video as a timed open edition. https://t.co/AZzPjkYvAs https://t.co/Q9FfPTsMtl

Executed

  • Gnarsauce Hot Sauce

    • A proposal asking for 0.69 ETH and Gnar 2767 from the treasury to facilitate the package design and cost of a test batch of “Gnarsauce” - a gnars-themed hot sauce to add flavor to your day.
