Upgrade Nuance Assets Canister



# Invitation to Invest in Neutrinite DAO

We are excited to extend an exclusive invitation for your organization to participate in the Neutrinite DAO launch. This initiative offers an investment opportunity of 5000 ICP, aligning with our mutual interests in decentralization and innovation.

Your participation in this launch is not just about investment; it's about collaboration and contributing to a new frontier in decentralized governance. This venture represents a significant step in our shared journey towards building a more interconnected and collaborative decentralized ecosystem.

Technical info:

1) This proposal sends ICP from your DAO treasury to an address in Neutronite SNS Swap that belongs to your SNS governance canister.
{owner: SNS Swap, subaccount: DAO Governance canister}
Verify the text account representation with your own tools or https://github.com/infu/verify_dao_sns_account/blob/main/check.js 

2) Once the NTN Launch is complete, your DAO will receive ICP back or NTN neurons.

3) Your DAO can assign a delegate with hotkey or fully control NTN neurons with generic proposals.  



Invitation to invest in Neutrinite DAO

During a previous maintenance window, the Aikin team temporarily de-registered the Nuance frontend canister to facilitate upgrades and infrastructure changes. While this was an intentional and routine part of platform upkeep, the original SNS permissions associated with the canister were not re-established upon re-deployment.

This proposal seeks to formally restore the necessary SNS permissions to the current Nuance frontend canister, ensuring uninterrupted integration with SNS governance and restoring full functionality.

Update Frontend Canister Commit Permissions

Test transfer 1 ICP tokens, if successful a roadmap proposal will follow

Test transfer 1 ICP tokens

Focusing on the three goals we have:
- the best paid writers
- most trusted content for readers
- best UX for both writers and readers

The Aikin team proposes the first quarters product roadmap.

Based on user feedback we propose the following enhancements to the Nuance product over the coming 12 weeks:
- Commenting feature to allow readers to comment on on articles. This is a baseline feature for most blogging platforms. Our users have requested it. Commenting enables writers to have an in-product dialogue with their readers. And readers can engage with other readers.
- Implement tipping for real. In order to help writers get paid we need to minimise the friction in the payment process. Today we have a mock token for tipping and we want enable real tokens. We propose to enable readers to tip writers in ICP, ckBTC and NUA tokens.
- SEO improvements. SEO will bring writers organic growth. Without good SEO writers cannot find their readers and readers can not find Nuance articles to read. We plan to engage with SEO experts to continiously refine our SEO approach.
- Improved UX. We have implemented MVP in the following areas and these need to be improved to get the basics right:
  - Text editor (wysiwyg editor)
  - NFT purchase flow
  - Article review/approval flow (for publishers)

In addition to product development we have legal and marketing costs. Our legal costs at the moment are higher than "normal" due to the launch of the DAO but as we are not yet at full engineering capacity this will not impact the forecast spend.

Nuance Roadmap

This proposal revokes the control of the asset canisters from their current registration, transferring it to the principal of the development team. This transfer will enable the development team to set appropriate permissions on the asset canisters, ensuring they can be upgraded through SNS proposals. A follow-up proposal is planned to reassign control of these canisters back to the SNS.

To understand more about upgrade permissions for asset canisters, you can refer to this documentation: https://internetcomputer.org/docs/current/developer-docs/integrations/sns/managing/sns-asset-canister/ and this developer forum post: https://forum.dfinity.org/t/issue-asset-canister-cant-be-upgraded-via-sns-proposal/23421

After discussions with the SONIC team, We propose to add liquidity to the ICP/NUA pool on Sonic Dex (https://data.sonic.ooo/pools/rxdbk-dyaaa-aaaaq-aabtq-cai:ryjl3-tyaaa-aaaaa-aaaba-cai)

Following this motion proposal, we will submit 2 additional proposals to apply for the transfer of 3000 ICP and 250K NUA tokens, respectively from the Nuance DAO treasury to the ICP/NUA Swap canister. (https://app.sonic.ooo/)

The destination account for both transfers will be the same but on 2 different ledgers and is as follows:

Principal: 3xwpq-ziaaa-aaaah-qcn4a-cai

Subaccount: [150, 151, 18, 244, 132, 79, 252, 147, 96, 113, 110, 49, 159, 196, 40, 42, 130, 61, 151, 30, 34, 183, 53, 236, 197, 29, 84, 114, 195, 38, 250, 4] (this is the Subaccount generated from the SONIC swap canister)

Simultaneously, @sonic_ooo & @nuancedapp will tweet to verify these proposals.

If these proposals are approved, Sonic Dex will add the funds to the liquidity pool.



Motion Proposal to add liquidity to the ICP/NUA pool on Sonic Dex 

This is the first of 2 proposals which add liquidity to the ICP/NUA pool on SONIC DEX (https://data.sonic.ooo/pools/rxdbk-dyaaa-aaaaq-aabtq-cai:ryjl3-tyaaa-aaaaa-aaaba-cai)

### Quarterly Roadmap

Focusing on the three goals we have:
- the best paid writers
- most trusted content for readers
- best UX for both writers and readers

The Aikin team proposes the next quarters product roadmap.

Based on user feedback we propose the following enhancements to the Nuance product over the coming 12 weeks:

2. **Improved Search**
3. **Related Articles**
4. **Registration Flow**
5. **Schedule Publish**

Update Memory Allocation

This upgrade includes the following bug fixes and new features... Removal of Aikin branding from Nuance, login improvements, bug fixes for publication management, commenting styling updates, converting backend data to only derive information from principal Ids allowing for handle changes, improvements to the new landing page, redefined active user count for accuracy with metrics, read article screen alignment fixes, publication search fixes, NFT UX improvements, tipping improvements, updated follower counts and updated the ordering of publication articles.
