# Sanctum: Should Sanctum build a Sanctum Mobile App (Wonder)?
## Summary
Sanctum proposed building a mobile app codenamed "Wonder" to onboard users into crypto through yield-bearing assets, social profiles, and simplified UX rather than memecoin trading. The proposal emphasized consumer-facing product value capture, citing Phantom's $3B valuation and Jupiter's $1.7B market cap as evidence of end-user product value. The proposal failed in futarchy governance.
## Market Data
- **Outcome:** Failed
- **Proposer:** proPaC9tVZEsmgDtNhx15e7nSpoojtPD3H9h4GqSqB2
- **Platform:** Futardio
- **Resolution:** 2025-03-31
## Proposal Details
Core product vision:
- Seedless wallet architecture for safety
- Profile-first design (people over addresses)
- Automatic yield optimization on deposits
- Gasless trades/transfers
- Fiat offramp via card/bank
- Curated project participation (potential MetaDAO launchpad integration)
Monetization models considered:
- AUM fees on deposits
- Swap fees
- Subscription fees
Go-to-market strategy: closed beta with high-staking Sanctum users ("cloudmen"), using invite codes for controlled iteration to find product-market fit before broader distribution.
## Significance
This proposal represents a strategic fork decision for Sanctum: consumer mobile app vs. B2B/institutional liquid staking focus. The failure indicates community preference for core infrastructure over consumer product expansion. The proposal explicitly acknowledged opportunity cost as the primary consideration, noting that mobile consumer apps are "notoriously hard" and would affect focus on scaling the core staking business.
The proposal's framing around "end-user value capture" and citations of Phantom ($3B valuation), Jupiter ($1.7B market cap), and MetaMask ($320M swap fees) reflects broader crypto industry thesis that consumer touchpoints command premium valuations.
## Relationship to KB
- [[sanctum]] - strategic direction decision
- [[metadao]] - referenced as potential launchpad integration partner
- [[futardio]] - governance platform
