Notes

Attendees: BrianMillsJr.eth, coltron.eth, slobo.e, 5pence.eth, Greg Skriloff, eth.limo-SydMead4000, Philip Manokhin, Kai Reid, Iman Hossini, Alisha.eth, Ginge.eth, & CerealSabre

Ad Hoc Topic: blockwallet.io

Philip Manokhin & Iman Hossini joined the call and wanted to know if they integrate ENS functionality into their privacy centric wallet if the DAO would support them through retweets. We answered yes.

A) Determine next step for ENS marketplace

  1. The core team will not be building a market place, as they do not have the capacity or interest to do so.

  2. Recently gem.xyz added better filtering, to allow for searching for only numbers and a special category for 10k club

  3. Based on above it was not clear what the incremental value add of an additional ENS specific market place would be, however if someone wants to submit an RFP the stewards would be happy to review in detail

  4. In terms of a financial tie in between an ENS tailored market place and the DAO, there would need to be a discussion of legal issues. @alisha.eth will be speaking with a lawyer over the next few weeks to get perspective here.

  5. Idea proposed by @gregskril was to add more detail to the meta data of ENS (ie numbers only, 10k club etc) to allow for property filtering on existing marketplaces

B) Highlight ecosystem projects

  1. We chatted about a hackathon project from devconnect by Kai (https://twitter.com/krd_fy). The project would allow folks to rent their ens name to others for a period of time. The ecosystem group is interested in funding this. Stay tuned for a proposal in the coming weeks.

  2. Check out https://nimi.eth.limo/ created by https://nimi.eth.limo. This allows you to create a mini website based of your ens name.

  3. https://dev.website.ens.art/ allows you to create an IPFS hosted website quickly using existing data in your ENS text records. Created by @gregskril
