Sanctum: Should Sanctum build a Sanctum Mobile App (Wonder)?

Summary

Sanctum proposed building "Wonder," a consumer mobile app designed to onboard mainstream users into crypto through simplified UX (no seed phrases), yield-bearing asset management, and social features. The proposal emphasized targeting "good" (agentic, integrous, open-minded, earnest) users rather than memecoin traders, with monetization through AUM fees, swap fees, or subscriptions. The proposal failed despite being Sanctum's "largest product decision ever."

Market Data

Proposal Details

Core product features:

  • Automatic yield optimization on deposits
  • Gasless trades/transfers
  • Fiat offramp via card or bank transfer
  • Curated project discovery and investment
  • Profile-first design (people, not wallet addresses)

Go-to-market strategy:

  • Closed beta with high-staking Sanctum community members
  • Invite-code distribution for iteration
  • IRL events for broader distribution after product-market fit

Stated opportunity cost: Building Wonder would divert resources from B2B staking business and institutional liquid staking expansion (CEX integrations, custodial products, locked SOL).

Significance

This proposal represents a major strategic fork for Sanctum: consumer mobile app versus B2B infrastructure. The failure suggests either:

  1. Community skepticism about consumer app viability
  2. Preference for focusing on core staking business
  3. Concerns about opportunity cost and resource allocation

The proposal cited Phantom's $3B valuation and Jupiter's $1.7B market cap as evidence of consumer-facing crypto product value, but the market rejected the pivot.
