Description

Gnars - Argentina

TL;DR

We propose allocating 1 ETH from Gnars DAO to co-host a Hacker House / Skate + Hacker Hub during Devconnect Buenos Aires (Nov 17–22, 2025) in collaboration with Builder DAO and possibly Zora
This proposal runs in parallel with a Builder DAO proposal (see proposal) to align resources and showcase the strength of joint initiatives

Our goals are:

  • Produce revenue-generating content (Droposals, $GNARS-paired coins on Zora)
  • Directly drive Gnars sales through in-person outreach and cultural activations
  • Strengthen partnerships with Builder DAO, Zora, and local Argentine Collectives
  • Extend the momentum from Devcon Thailand 2024 into a builder-focused presence
  • Networking and showcase of Gnars work
  • Evolve Gnars DAO tooling

🛹 Context & Motivation

  • Partnerships: In parallel with this proposal, Builder DAO is submitting their own request to contribute 1 ETH. Together with Nouns and Zora the 4 brands will form the foundation of the Skate + Hacker House

  • Local Media Partner – 7Capas: We will collaborate again with 7Capas magazine in Argentina, who previously worked with Gnars (Noggles rail). They will co-produce audiovisual and printed content and anchor the local skateboarding narrative

  • Continuity from Devcon Thailand: Last year Gnars created cultural + skateboarding content, minted NFTs/Coins, and built visibility in Bangkok. This year, the focus is not only building Gnars tools but also monetizing the content to channel value back to the DAO

  • Revenue Strategy:

    • Content minted on-chain will be paired with $GNARS on Zora to create demand
    • Droposals will be used as an experimental format to drive recurring revenue from cultural activations
    • Gnars crew will directly approach Devconnect participants to onboard them into Gnars and drive NFT sales
    • Sponsorship seeking for Gnars DAO

🔑 Objectives

  1. Networking with Builder DAO, Nouns, Base, Zora, and Devconnect attendees

    • Secure long-term partnerships (L2/L3, app chains, SDK integrations)
  2. Revenue-Generating Content

    • Film and publish skateboarding + hacker house content with 7Capas
    • Mint audiovisual capsules as Coins on Zora, paired with $GNARS
    • Use Droposals to experiment with revenue backflow into the DAO
  3. The Skater + Hacker House

    • Shared hub for builders and skaters, co-hosted with Builder DAO and Zora
    • Enable workshops, hackathons, with Builder SDK and Zora SDK
    • Anchor Gnars cultural presence within the Ethereum builder community
  4. Direct Gnars Sales

    • Crew will actively promote and sell Gnars NFTs to Devconnect attendees
    • Branded merch (Noggles boards, shirts, stickers) will support visibility and sales

📅 Timeline

  • Oct–Nov 2025: Planning with Builder DAO, Zora, sponsors, and 7Capas
  • Nov 17–22: Hacker/Skater House during Devconnect Buenos Aires
  • Nov 23+: Post-event report, revenue breakdown

📦 Deliverables

  • Co-hosted Skate + Hacker House.
  • Being next to Builder DAO devs will help us integrate the latest builder features and functions to Gnars Website
  • Renew https://gnars.com -> https://gnars-shadcn.vercel.app/
  • Revenue-focused content:
    • Drops paired with $GNARS Zora token
    • Droposals designed for DAO backflow
    • Mini-doc + photo capsules with 7Capas
  • Partnership Outcomes: At least 3 tangible collaborations (Builder tools, Zora integrations, Base or Syndicate sponsorships)
  • Direct Gnars Sales at the event
  • Community Report: Post-event summary with revenue results + media metrics

💰 Budget

  • Ask from Gnars DAO: 1 ETH
  • Co-Funding:
    • Builder DAO: 1 ETH
    • Zora: funding in discussion

✅ Rationale

  • Small ask, high leverage: 1 ETH contribution matched by Builder + sponsors
  • Revenue-first approach: Clear plan to monetize content (Droposals + Zora Coins) and direct Gnars sales
  • Strategic Continuity: Builds directly on the success of Devcon Thailand, evolving from storytelling into sustainable DAO-aligned revenue generation
  • IRL Networking with important market players: Builder, Zora, Base, and more

✍️ Team

  • Gnars Crew: r4to, Vlad, Willdias, Zimardrp, Nogenta, karao7a, WillyWonka
  • Media Partner: 7Capas (Argentina)
  • Collaborators: Highlander (KeepKey), Benedictvs (BuilderDAO), Mono (Nouns) and Zora (hopefully)

🔑 In short: This proposal positions Gnars as both a cultural and builder force at Devconnect — producing revenue-generating content, selling Gnars directly, and deepening partnerships with Builder DAO and Zora
