DexGo — Secret Network Grant Application
Program: Secret Network Grant Program: Secret Apps
Team: DexStudios
Project Description
DexGo is a Move-to-Earn AR game that motivates people to explore real cities through gamified walking routes. Players discover curated locations, complete routes with augmented reality, and earn rewards through in-game mechanics and NFTs.
The project is developed by DexStudios, a full-cycle Web3 game studio with live products, strong user traction, and proven monetization. DexGo is already live on mobile platforms and has demonstrated organic growth through community-driven adoption and social channels.
Secret Network is a strategic fit for DexGo due to its privacy-preserving smart contracts, which enable new gameplay mechanics, protected user data, and fair reward distribution without exposing sensitive location or behavioral information.
Problem / Solution
Problem:
Location-based and Move-to-Earn applications inherently rely on sensitive user data such as routes, habits, and geolocation. On public blockchains, this data becomes transparent, creating privacy risks, limiting adoption, and reducing trust.
Solution:
DexGo leverages Secret Network’s private smart contracts to:
- Protect sensitive user data (routes, activity, rewards logic).
- Enable fair but non-transparent reward calculations.
- Secure NFT mechanics (wear, repair, upgrades) without exposing internal parameters.
- Allow advertisers and partners to create routes without revealing business-sensitive data.
This creates a privacy-first Move-to-Earn experience that is not feasible on fully transparent chains.
Detailed Product Description
DexGo consists of:
- A mobile AR application for route discovery and gameplay.
- NFT sneakers with durability, repair, and upgrade mechanics.
- Smart contracts managing NFTs, rewards, and route monetization.
- Community and advertiser tools for creating branded or sponsored routes.
On Secret Network, core logic such as reward formulas, durability depletion, and route analytics will be executed in private contracts, while still remaining verifiable.
Go-to-Market Plan
DexGo already has an active Web2 and Web3 audience and will onboard users to Secret Network through:
- Existing DexGo players migrating to Secret-powered features.
- Incentivized campaigns and quests tied to Secret Network.
- Partnerships with local businesses, tourism boards, and advertisers.
- Social media distribution with proven reach (TikTok, Instagram, Telegram).
Privacy-first positioning will be a key differentiator in marketing.
Value Capture for the Secret Network Ecosystem
DexGo directly contributes to Secret Network KPIs:
- Increased on-chain activity via gameplay transactions.
- New user onboarding from a non-crypto native audience.
- Demonstration of real-world privacy use cases beyond DeFi.
- Attraction of developers interested in location-based and AR applications.
DexGo acts as a flagship consumer app showcasing why privacy matters in Web3 gaming.
