Roxanne Jones: I think these moments in start-ups are, they all kind of feel like that. How does somebody get to this sort of level of conviction? We'll go from first initial idea that got me in the crypto into why noun styles are probably the best form that gets at that idea. She says Zora is making a move into more of a DOW tooling and it's an exciting time for them. The company was founded by ex-Coinbase CEO Mike Kucharski who now runs his own venture capital firm called C4 Capital.

Nouns DAOs are having a moment in the spotlight, with Jacob Horne —founder of Zora — as one of the more prominent evangelists. In this conversation, Jess and Jacob discuss a core question: Why are ERC721 tokens (NFTs) a more compelling form of ownership than ERC20s? They explore the connection between Nouns DAOs and hyperstructures, and a compelling take that forkability is additive to the ecosystem as a whole. Nouns DAOs enable localized nodes of functionality, thereby increasing optionality and infinite possibilities for proliferating a community meme. Communities exist, communities want to do things together, and they need a medium to do that — the Nouns model provides the tools to do exactly that.
