Unruggable Subname Rentals | @Premm.eth and @clowes.eth
Premm and Thomas are looking to make changes around 3 current limitations of subname rentals
The project introduces the idea of a renewal controller that manages the price of renewals. An indepedent 3rd party in this case could control the price of renewals and prevent price hikes on current subname holders

Gitcoin Grants have come to a close. Key feedback are high gas fees - Gitcoin will be prioristing deploying on Layers 2s before our next round. In spite of high fees, the closing figures are:
Matching values are not yet calculated (though capped at 5% of $50k). These will be figured out within a week and reported on at the next meeting (or sooner).
Additionally, ecosystem team was issuing gas refunds to applicants to avoid anyone being excluded. This is in line with Ecosystem WG wanting to support projects to have the resources you need to get funding you need.
Here are the top 10 projects in terms of “Number of Donations Received”
Projects | No. of Contributions |
---|---|
eth.limo | 39 |
ENS DAO Newsletter | 30 |
Optinames | 30 |
GasHawk | 29 |
beaconcha.in | 26 |
Heavens Tools | 23 |
1W3 | 22 |
ENSRedirect | 20 |
Web3Domains.com | 20 |
ENS Doc | 19 |
Many of the projects in this round have attended & shared in WG meetings. Going forward, these results aid as another helpful metric for what we support.
Since May 4th, 7528 anniversary POAPS have been minted (tweeted)
This initiative has broken records for ENS Avatar Records Set in a day. See Dune Analytics Query, where we twice broke the record set back in May 2022. The inititiave was a success.

POAP artist: áxek @theaxents
Website built by @gregskril
Acknowledgements: Props to Greg for the site being built and the artist áxek. ENS are lucky to have been working with the POAP team to have this sort of flow & success.
A solution to this is professionlising bounty program & being clear on scope.
This was generally supported.
Action item: Nick will schedule meetings, and get back on details of costs next week
Generally speaking a referral system is strongly supported with multiple ways to approach it. This discussion continued with the ideas in the active forum thread.
Action item: Wait 1 week to allow others to input to the forum, then schedule specific ENS14 call to discuss.
