D’CENT, a pioneer in biometric hardware wallets, has introduced Ethereum Layer-2 solution Taiko as the third featured partner in its ongoing Web3 campaign, Tap That Drop. The initiative, which incentivizes community participation through token rewards and exclusive NFTs, marks a significant evolution in D’CENT’s journey from a secure storage solution to an interactive Web3 engagement platform.
Launched by Korean blockchain security firm IoTrust in 2018, D’CENT Wallet is recognized as the first hardware wallet to incorporate biometric authentication. It allows users to manage their crypto assets offline with enhanced security, using a fingerprint scanner combined with its dedicated companion app. This approach merges robust protection with ease of use, distinguishing D’CENT from other cold wallets that often compromise on accessibility.
The Tap That Drop campaign is part of D’CENT’s broader effort to redefine itself as more than just a hardware solution. By incorporating gamified quests and reward-based interactions, the platform is expanding into a comprehensive Web3 hub. Users can now explore decentralized ecosystems, manage portfolios, and earn incentives—all within a single, secure environment.
Supporting over 85 blockchain networks and 4,500 cryptocurrencies, D’CENT’s upgraded platform offers seamless access to a wide range of protocols. The Tap That Drop campaign, launched on May 27, 2025, reflects this transformation by showcasing 12 Web3 projects, each featuring a set of quests designed to drive engagement and reward loyalty.
Participants in the campaign receive tokenized incentives and unique zodiac-themed NFTs for each project they engage with. Accumulating these NFTs enhances the participant’s reward tier for the final Mega Airdrop at the end of the season. Additional benefits include access to exclusive token pools and early features.
The campaign has already demonstrated strong momentum. The first two partnerships, Skate and MAP Protocol, attracted over 20,000 users and saw their respective reward pools claimed within hours. The limited-edition NFTs—Rammie and Bulloo—were distributed to those completing the quests. These successes set the stage for the latest collaboration with Taiko.

Taiko, known for its zero-knowledge Ethereum Layer-2 rollup and based sequencing mechanism, is now the third project to join the campaign. Starting June 25, participants can complete Taiko’s quest series to earn rewards from a 52,000 $TAIKO token pool and claim the third exclusive NFT in the Tap That Drop collection. The project, which gained visibility during its mainnet launch endorsed by Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin, has also been listed among Binance Alpha’s top ten early-stage crypto assets.
The partnership further solidifies D’CENT’s role as a platform bridging user-friendly interfaces with the decentralized world. Its secure design, powered by the CC EAL5+ certified chip, continues to safeguard user assets while offering frictionless transaction approvals via biometric verification.
Moreover, holders of D’CENT biometric wallets have consistently received top-tier rewards throughout the campaign. This includes preferential access and higher airdrop tiers during both the Skate and MAP Protocol rounds, reinforcing the value of owning the hardware wallet for serious Web3 participants.
Through campaigns like Tap That Drop, D’CENT is positioning itself as a gateway to the evolving Web3 ecosystem. Its collaboration with Taiko signals the wallet’s intent to remain at the forefront of decentralized engagement, offering users not only the highest levels of security but also dynamic ways to interact with emerging blockchain technologies.
