#7 - Acquisitions, less than a week to Oddities and silver nests and Sub-Parliaments
In this week’s Parliament we got to see KRO’s marketing genius again as he FOMO’ed the heck out of the oddities Gremplin art.

Acquisitions:
The biggest piece of news this week was the acquisition of the Divergence Team (Harri And Arran).
"Team Divergence has been acquired and now full time with @proof_xyz. Arran will be joining as VP of Engineering. Harri will be joining as Director of Product Management"
In case you aren’t grasping how big this is, it is HUGE! And why is that? Because Divergence is one of the best ERC-721A Dev teams in the world. Divergence is at the very forefront of what technology allows us do in Web3 (ahem… nesting); and PROOF stealing this team for themselves sets back many other teams who would normally hire Divergence considerably.
This was even recognized by Alexis Ohanian in Twitter which was nice to see.
There has never been a time Kevin has come to them with an idea and they've never said it's impossible.
Oddities is less than a week away:
Wednesday July 20th at 9:00AM PDT is when we’ll see the full reveal. The team will have a “Reveal party” for holders to share the art at that time. It’s unclear if this will be inside the discord server os some other platform like YouTube or Zoom.

On Sunday morning we saw Pre-Reveal art in the metadata. Check our Twitter feed to learn how to see what kind of pre-reveal art you got too.
Silver Nests on Thursday
And to top it all off Thursday marks the next nesting milestone. We don’t know what to expect, could this be hoodies for hooded birbs or something beyond apparel merch? We don’t know but we are definitely excited.
More Trait Based Art Drops - Rubberduckz
There are 92 Moonbird holders who just received a BYORD NFT. @RubberduckzNFT: QUACK HOOT! @moonbirds holders with a Rubber Duck trait, just got a BYORD NFT airdropped. BYORD (Build Your Own Rubber Duck) is a customizable collection with more than 450 hand-drawn new traits. Hatch it in the Incubator to create a final BYORD NFT. https://byord.xyz
Discord Reorg
This week there was a big Re-org of the Discord. As KRO said it seems every 6 months or so every Discord admin has to prune and re-org discord servers as the needs of communities change fast. We really like the new structure, it is easier to navigate.
Communities and Sub-Parliaments
One of the changes in the Discord server is also the addition of Private threads for Sub-Parliaments based on traits and other communities. I’m excited for this as it will allow for easier coordination of IRL events, DAOs and more. I’m personally excited for the @Los Latin Birds community and what may happen in Miami at Art Basel as some of the Proof members have said they expect to be there in December.
That’s it for now, fun week head birbs; see you in a week.
