SONOVA - UCG application proposal

Hi @Youngsun , Sonova must be very busy for the preparation to transition to Soneium, and thanks for your dedication. However, as Sonova is one of the recipients of the UCG program, it would be really great if you can share monthly progress (or report) with the community even it is a short summary of what you have done over the course of the reporting month. Look forward to hearing from you!

I would like to ask the team for more information regarding the progress update or additional roadmap - what plans or details does the team have? Perhaps there might be ways we can help promote or assist in one way or another. =)

October Monthly Recap

On October 7th, we participated in an AMA hosted by Neemo Finance, where we had the opportunity to establish valuable connections with multiple projects. Additionally, we’ve been making strides to grow the community and foster partnerships through the Soneium NFT Alliance. Notably, South Korea’s Dreby Race project joined the Alliance, along with Hunters of Web3, a community with 250,000 followers. We are committed to expanding the participating communities and projects in the coming months.

In October, we also made significant progress in conceptualizing Sonova’s NFT Collection. The storyline and asset images almost have been finalized, and we’re thrilled to launch this on Soneium’s mainnet to build a unique and engaged community around Sonova.

Stay tuned for more updates as we continue to grow together!

October brought some interesting moves! The AMA with Neemo Finance and new alliances, like Derby Race and Hunters of Web3, definitely add value. Curious to know—what’s the next step with Sonova’s NFT Collection? And any hints on other partnerships in the works?

Thank you for sharing the October recap! It’s great to see the active community engagement and partnership-building efforts. However, as part of the UCG initiative, there’s an expectation to focus on tangible product development, specifically the creation of decentralized applications.

The recap covers several strategic initiatives but lacks updates on dApp progress or how these activities contribute to the product-building requirement under UCG. Could you provide more insight into the current dApp development or technical milestones? Focusing more on this area in future recaps would help show alignment with UCG’s mission and showcase the team’s commitment to building on Astar.

Dear @Youngsun
I think the 4 months of UCG have already passed. It would be great to see your comments and the final report. Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi @Youngsun!

Thank you for all your monthly reports here. Looking forward to your November updates. In the meantime, we have unstaked the 17M $ASTR from Sonova and now staking it back to the community treasury.

Thank you and let us know if you need help on anything.

Thank you very much for the November recap information. I would like to ask a few additional questions:

  1. Currently, the NFT trend is emerging, especially with Pudgy Penguins. What opportunities does the team see in this area?

  2. How were the numbers looking for the month of November?

Thanks for the speech, but you’re completely off track. DApp staking isn’t about making friends or alliances, it’s about delivering value to the Astar ecosystem by building products that provide utility and real contributions. Collaborations and alliances lay the groundwork for growth, but if you’re too shortsighted to see the bigger picture, that’s on you. You clearly don’t meet the requirements, so bye-bye.

Thank you very much for the recap update information. There seem to be many interesting things. Now that the NFT market is starting to become active again, how does the team see opportunities in this area? And this includes the Astar Surge activities as well. =)

Notable progress in November with the addition of new communities and projects, as well as steps toward improving the Soneium launchpad. Looking forward to seeing how this develops.
