1. 🤖 $GOAT pops off. Truth Terminal, an AI bot funded by Andreesen Horowitz, didn’t create $GOAT on Solana, but it did endorse the memecoin, prompting the token to surge to a +$150 million market cap over the next few days.  
2. 👾 GAM3S Awards near. Crypto gaming hub GAM3S announced the finalists for its 2024 GAM3 Awards, featuring 50 shortlisted games across 21 categories and with $5 million in prizes up for grabs. 
3. 🚀 Flaunch readies for launch. Flaunch, a new token launcher platform built atop Base and Uniswap V4, has moved closer to release by opening its beta test waitlist.

One thing I love about Nouns is the collective’s willingness to fund a wide variety of things. 

For example, the group has backed a float in the Rose Bowl Parade, free prescription glasses for kids, and research + conservation efforts around a new species of frog. 

What many people in crypto don’t realize though is that Nouns also has its own competitive gaming arm: Nouns Esports. 

Let’s get you up to speed on how Noun Esports came to be and why its model can become much more popular in the gaming world! 👇

Cartesi did the hard work, like putting Linux on the blockchain, so that building dApps could be radically simple. Discover a boundless design space for your most ambitious web3 projects.

I recently highlighted NANI, an onchain AI agents app powered by large language model (LLM) tech. But NANI is focused on automating smart contract interactions. What about if you’re wanting to analyze smart contracts?

Here, cue in Sage, a new LLM-powered bot created by ilemi that can help you answer questions about smart contracts at a “User,” “Analyst,” or “Developer” level depending on your experience. 

Sage is brand new, so right now only verified Base contracts are supported, and there is currently a waitlist to join.  

Regardless, whether you’re a builder, a researcher, or just a degen trying to figure out how to mint directly from a contract, this is a fresh helpful resource that can make understanding the very technical very simple!
