Gnars Revamp: Docs and Governance

TL;DR

0.25 ETH + $900 USDC to revamp Gnars infrastructure regarding to Docs and Governance Analytics. The goal is to deliver data-driven information for DAO governance in a clear and objective way.

Introduction

Gnars DAO is going through positive changes regarding UI/UX, with a new page and features. However, some important information has become fragmented throughout the DAO's development, such as gnars.center, deprecated Documentation, deprecated Discord channels, Photos/Videos/Files built throughout the DAO's phases, Snapshot with information on the first proposals, Thats.gnarly, and Onboarding posts on Hive. This creates friction in understanding Gnars culture and difficulty with onboarding.

The goal of this proposal is to recover the DAO's history, which is fragmented across different distribution channels, smart contracts, and protocols no longer in use, in order to consolidate the DAO's storytelling in a clear and objective way, from its creation and development (Nouns Funding, Base Jumping, Zora Coins), to generate metrics that support the funding of impact ecosystems, the creator economy, retrofundings, and the funding from protocols. It makes Gnars DAO more data-driven, generating metrics to attract investment.

Scope of Work/Goals

1. Data Infrastructure & Governance Revamp

Implement a Data-Driven Governance Culture. The goal is to build a dynamic data layer that bridges Gnars' history with the novel integrations of the Nouns.build ecosystem:

  • Data Indexing: Working with the dev team (r4topunk.eth) to index governance data, DAO participation, and financial metrics (eg. revenues/expenditures), transforming them into a structured source for developers.
  • Dune Analytics: Structure the data to be more data-driven via subgraphs, facilitating integrations with the Nouns.build protocol.
  • Docs Consolidation: Unify data from Hive, Snapshot, Thats.gnarly, and Basejump into a repository for LLM and agents purposes.
  • Categorization: Implement labels like Public Goods, Athletes, DAO Ops to attach filters in future UIs.
  • Mapping Gnars Culture: Merge specs and legacy contracts to ensure that transitions to new interfaces maintain full historical continuity.
SourceDescription
HiveCollect information from old publications, use it for archival purposes and storytelling.
SnapshotCollect information from old proposals, categorize the type of proposals and how much was spent on each one.
Thats.gnarlyThe website thats.gnarly is currently offline; archive legacy data and collect photos and videos from Instagram during that period.
Discord ServerCollect information from Discord, look for references to bots, such as Norman from Lilnouns, for example.
Basejump (Gnars V2)Collect information, understand what we can do with gnars.wtf and the deprecated smart contracts, with the goal of unifying them into one. Support the Dev team in this decision-making process.
Dune AnalyticsUpdate of the GnarsV2 Dashboard created by 0xsatori.
Current StageUnify the deprecated information with the current stage of the DAO.

Outputs

  • Developer-Ready Infrastructure: A structured data schema and unified technical documentation designed to reduce friction for developers building on top of the Gnars ecosystem.
  • Report: Analysis merging legacy data with current metrics to streamline member onboarding and inform future governance decisions.
  • Decision-Support Framework: A set of metrics and historical baselines to assist new applicants in aligning their proposals with the DAO’s strategic interests and funding patterns.
