D’CENT Expands From Wallet to Web3 Platform Through ‘Tap That Drop’ Campaign With Taiko

D’CENT, a leading biometric hardware wallet, has unveiled Ethereum Layer-2 Taiko as its third partner for its Web3 campaign, Tap That Drop. The initiative introduces tokenized rewards and exclusive NFTs that users can earn by completing gamified quests.

In this piece, we discuss how the Tap That Drop campaign reflects D’CENT Wallet’s transformation beyond just a hardware wallet. We’ll also explain what users can expect from Tap That Drop with Taiko on board.

More Than a Wallet: D’CENT’s Transition to a Web3 Platform

Developed by Korean blockchain security company IoTrust in 2018, D’CENT Wallet is the world’s first hardware wallet with built-in biometric authentication. The device secures users’ private keys offline and allows for seamless crypto management through its fingerprint scanner and the D’CENT crypto wallet companion app.

Recognizing the needs of modern crypto owners, D’CENT started transitioning from a mere token vault device to an extensive Web3 platform driven by user interactions. As seen through the Tap That Drop campaign’s quest-based incentives, the biometric wallet invites users to unlock the blockchain’s full potential.

To help further its expansion as a fully-fledged Web3 hub, D’CENT is upgrading its platform to include portfolio tools, ecosystem discovery, and reward-based participation. With support for over 85 networks and 4,500 cryptocurrencies, the hardware wallet enables users to interact with various protocols in a single, secure environment.

‘Tap That Drop’ Web3 Campaign Overview

Tap That Drop is D’CENT’s first seasonal campaign, which started on May 27, 2025. Designed to reward its loyal community members and showcase emerging crypto platforms, the campaign features 12 Web3 projects that offer quests on the D’CENT wallet app.

By completing these tasks, D’CENT users receive token rewards and a zodiac-inspired NFT per Web3 project. The more of these NFTs an individual owns, the higher their rewards level for the Mega Airdrop once the season ends. Additional perks include extra token pools and exclusive access to upcoming features.

From its last two partnerships, Tap That Drop has already proven its ability to drive active engagement. Here’s a short breakdown of these Web3 partners:

Skate (Partner 1): Over 20,000 participants with all rewards (500,000 $SKATE tokens) claimed hours within launch. Those who completed its quests received the Rammie NFT.
MAP Protocol (Partner 2): Even faster engagement than Skate, with all rewards (5,800,000 $MAPO tokens) claimed in less than two hours. Featured the exclusive Bulloo NFT.

D’CENT Wallet x Taiko Partnership Launching on June 25th

The third ‘star’ in D’CENT Wallet’s Tap That Drop campaign is Taiko, an Ethereum Layer-2 (L2) based rollup focused on decentralization and scalability. Known for its sequencing mechanism, the L2 platform will launch its set of Tap That Drop quests on June 25th.

Participants who complete Taiko’s series of tasks will earn tokenized rewards from a 65,000 $TAIKO token prize pool and unlock the third exclusive NFT for the Mega Airdrop.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin endorsed Taiko during its mainnet launch when he proposed the project’s first block. The L2 also went live on the Binance Alpha early-stage crypto list as one of the platform’s top 10 traded tokens.

Core Strengths and User Reward Structure of the D’CENT Wallet

What sets the D’CENT biometric wallet apart from other cold wallets is its combination of uncompromising security and convenience. Leveraging the safety of the Certified Security Chip (CC EAL5+), D’CENT Wallet safely stores users’ private keys offline. With the tap of a finger, individuals get instant crypto transaction approval and added convenience through the D’CENT app.

With seamless security in place, D’CENT empowers its users to access the Web3 ecosystem confidently. Hardware wallets are renowned for offering the highest level of crypto storage security, but are often difficult to use due to unintuitive controls and interfaces. The D’CENT Wallet, however, provides a seamless crypto management experience with the same level of asset protection through biometric authentication.

Additionally, we must mention that D’CENT biometric hardware wallet holders get access to exclusive discounts and receive higher reward tiers throughout the Tap That Drop campaign. This has been the case since Skate and MAP Protocol’s quests, with biometric wallet owners getting the highest level for the airdrop rewards.

Conclusion: D’CENT Is Refining What A Wallet Can Be

With how today’s crypto users are diving deeper into decentralized activities, D’CENT is shifting its identity from a secure storage solution to a full-blown Web3 platform. With upgrades to portfolio management, blockchain exploration, and participatory rewards, the D’CENT Wallet becomes an interactive portal into the decentralized ecosystem.

Highlighting this transition is the Tap That Drop airdrop campaign, which has attracted tens of thousands of participants in under a month. Its latest partnership with the popular Ethereum L2 Taiko will release a new wave of quests and tokenized rewards, projected to be claimed almost immediately upon launch.
