CDP-18: Fund Development of NEURON Wallet

Summary

We propose to allocate CHF 49,836 (equivalent to ~1,000,000 BIO tokens from the BIO Reward Pool) to design and develop the NEURON Wallet, an official Cerebrum DAO mobile and web app. The wallet will let users stake NEURON for rewards, receive discounts on Cerebrum products, and vote on governance and research priorities. More features will come as the community engages and provides input into future utility.

We founded Cerebrum DAO to put the power directly into the hands of those affected by brain diseases to fund, participate, and prioritize the pathway to cures and prevention therapies. The NEURON wallet is our next step in this journey to onboard the next wave of Cerebrum community members who may not yet be participating in Web3 or crypto assets directly onchain.

Motivation

The NEURON Wallet will be the flagship user interface of the Cerebrum DAO ecosystem. It will help increase the adoption of NEURON by enabling:

• Abstracting away the need to manage private keys through a simple username/password/recovery method for those who don’t want the burden and responsibility of private key management and security
• Staking for rewards
• Discounts on Cerebrum’s research and health products
• Direct governance participation
• Priority setting in research funding strategy
• Purchasing NEURON via fiat onramps
• Community quests and initiatives

This first release will deliver the core functionality with additional features and cross-integration with xponetiq and other Cerebrum DAO products planned for future updates.

Budget & Funding Plan

• Total Cost: CHF 49,836 (covers full design and development)
• Funding Source: ~1,000,000 BIO tokens from the Cerebrum Reward Pool
• Timeline: 2–3 months of development and implementation
• Liquidation Plan: Tokens will not be sold all at once but liquidated in tranches over ~3 months to minimize market impact.
• Rationale: Using the Reward Pool aligns incentives by growing NEURON utility and innovating new DeSci infrastructure, while avoiding depletion of core community-funded treasury reserves which remain dedicated to operations and funding research.
