This bounty gives the opportunity to
The goal of this bounty is to create an on-chain wallet written in Motoko.
The call_raw function is being added to motoko in DFX 0.9.1. You can try it out now by downloading 0.9.1-beta.0. See instructions on installing a specific version. This functionality allows the creation of on-chain wallets written in Motoko. With call_raw your wallet users will be able to call remote canisters from their wallet without the wallet having to upgrade your wallet with the known types of new services.
The wallet the developer will create will be both a ready-to-deploy wallet and a template for others to use to create custom wallets with unique properties and signature schemes.
Wallet - a wallet can hold assets on the Internet Computer. In our case our wallet is itself a canister. It can hold tokens, NFTs, and other assets. It can also make function calls on behalf of the user.
Multi-sig - sometimes you want more than one person to sign for a transaction. n-of-m means that n number of valid signatures out of m are required to have the wallet call a function on another canister or transfer assets.
Proposal - when a function is “in flight” and waiting for enough signatures it is a proposal.
Allow-List - a wallet needs to put canisters that are valid for the wallet to interact with on a list. If the canister is not on this list then the wallet will not call the function.
// request the cycle balance of the canister
// must be an owner of the canister
query cycle_balance() -> async Nat;
// returns the default account for the wallet that can be used with some ledger based tokens
query default_account() -> async Text;
// returns a list of tokens that have been added to the wallet
// the wallet should natively know how to handle EXT, DIP20, and Ledger(ICP) based tokens
query token_list() -> async [{principal: principal; standard: Text; symbol: Text}];
// returns a list of NFT canisters that have been added to the wallet
query nft_list() -> [{principal: Principal; standard: Text, collection: Text}];
// returns a list of allowed functions for the wallet
query allow_list() -> [{principal: Principal; function: Text, service: Text}];
// returns a list of functions that were called by the wallet
query function_log(page: Nat; skip: Nat, count: Nat);
//keeps a running list of config changes
query config_log(page: Nat; skip: Nat, count: Nat);
//returns proposals in reverse order
query proposals(page: Nat; skip: Nat, count: Nat) -> [{proposal: Nat; proposalResult: ProposalStatus; principal: Principal; function: Text; data: Blob, timestamp: Nat;}];
//returns config proposals in reverse order
query config_proposals(page: Nat; skip: Nat, count: Nat) -> [{proposal: Nat; proposalResult: ProposalStatus; command: ConfigureWalletCommand; timestamp: Nat;}];
//can be called by an owner or signer to change the way the wallet behaves. If the wallet is in multi-sig mode a proposal will be created.
configure_wallet(command: ConfigureWalletCommand) -> Result<ConfigureWalletResponse, Error>;
//calls the function and either executes the function or creates a proposal to execute the function;
call(principal: Principal, function: Text, data: Blob) -> async CallResult;
// signs an open proposal. Must be called by a signer
sign_propsal(proposal: Nat, {#sign; #reject}) -> Result<ProposalStatus, Error>;
// signs config proposals, Must be called by a signer
sign_config_proposal(proposal: Nat, {#sign; #reject}) -> Result<ProposalStatus, Error>;

The wallet will need to use the http_request function to return a web application that exposes the following information and functions.
We suggest constructing wireframes and submitting them for public content before building the interfaces. You may consider enlisting the help of a designer as well. Design is not a priority for this bounty, but an unusable interface will not be accepted. The interface should use a minimalist responsive template and look and operate on both a desktop and mobile.
You will need to find a way to use agent-js to take a candid input and return the binary representation of the input parameters of a call and return it to the web app so that it can pass it to wallet.call(function_name: Text, params: Blob). Further, when you have the results you will need to use agent-js to decode the binary encoded result.
Bonus: Use DAB to load in known service names.
The ICDevs.org developer’s advisors will propose a vote to award the bounty and the Developer Advisors will vote.
Please keep your ongoing code in a public repository(fork or branch is ok). Please provide regular (at least weekly) updates. Code commits count as updates if you link to your branch/fork from the bounty thread. We just need to be able to see that you are making progress.
The balance of the bounty will be paid out at completion.
Once you have finished, please alert the dev forum thread that you have completed work and where we can find that work. We will review and award the bounty reward if the terms have been met. If there is any coordination work(like a pull request) or additional documentation needed we will inform you of what is needed before we can award the reward.
If you cease work on the bounty for a prolonged(at the Developer Advisory Board’s discretion) or if the quality of work degrades to the point that we think someone else should be working on the bounty we may re-award it. We will be transparent about this and try to work with you to push through and complete the project, but sometimes, it may be necessary to move on or to augment your contribution with another resource which would result in a split bounty.

ICDevs will match the bounty 5:1 for the first 40 ICP out of the DFINITY grant and then 0.25:1 after that. All donations will be tax deductible for US Citizens and Corporations. If you send a donation and need a donation receipt, please email the hash of your donation transaction, physical address, and name to donations@icdevs.org. More information about how you can contribute can be found at our donations page.
The draft bounty is posted to the DFINITY developer’s forum for discussion
The developer advisor’s board will propose a bounty be ratified and a vote will take place to ratify the bounty. Until a bounty is ratified by the Dev it hasn’t been officially adopted. Please take this into consideration if you are considering starting early.
Developers can submit applications to the Dev Forum post. The council will consider these as they come in and propose a vote to award the bounty to one of the applicants. If you would like to apply anonymously you can send an email to austin at icdevs dot org or sending a PM on the dev forum.
A developer is currently working on this bounty, you are free to contribute, but any splitting of the award will need to be discussed with the currently assigned developer.
The Dev Council is reviewing the submission
