Lil Nouns DAO

Duration: May 2025 – July 2025 Total Budget: 1.52 stETH

TL;DR

Chompix seeks funding to serve as the Lil Esports Intern for Lil Nouns DAO from May to July 2025, organizing Dota 2 tournaments (GEMS Series: Southeast Asia and NADCL Season 8) and a Super Smash Bros. Melee activation (Tipped Off 16). Requesting 0.52 stETH and $1,750 USDC (rounded up to 1 stETH in the ask for volatility), Chompix will promote Lil Nouns’ brand, empower women in esports, and engage communities in Southeast Asia, the Americas, and the fighting game scene, leveraging experience from the Octaexon League, The Function, NADCL S6, GEMS Women Circuit, and Nounish Cup #002. Note: If stETH value increases, Chompix keeps excess funds; if it decreases, Chompix covers shortfalls, including gas fees. Significant stETH price increases may be assessed as a tip based on deliverables.
