BigShot has shown a persistent determination to contribue to Nouns and expand awareness of the DAO in the world of character IP. I propose we send $100k + Noun 321 to BigShot. It seems like the least we could do in a situation like this. --- Note: As of the time of this candidate being posted, I have not spoken with BigShot about this proposal, though I have reached out. I hope we are able to correspond soon in order to better coordinate this proposal. I hope Nouners will consider supporting and sponsoring this candidate.
