Onchain Culture x Nouns Builder with ERC-6551 — Jayden Windle, Isaac, Neokry
Jayden Windle is a developer from Future Primitive. Isaac is a product manager from Zora working on Nouns Builder. Neokry is a resident engineer from BuilderDAO and Nouns Builder. We join for a conversation about the new NFT standard ERC-6551 which Jayden is working on with Future Primitive, including Benny Giang. Any NFT that has previously existed or will in the future has now become a wallet. NFTs can now hold other NFTs. It’s turtles all the way down. We talk about Nouns Builder and what’s happening in that ecosystem. The state of DAOs in 2023. Manifestations of onchain media. Collective creation as DAOs form around NFTs. How ideas like these are forming a new lifestyle for the internet.
