DAIKO Reimagines Pet Care by Merging Web3 with Real-World Rewards - BlockTelegraph
At the centre of DAIKO’s offering is a proprietary smart leash, embedded with an RFID transponder which will integrate with the DAIKO mobile application, currently in beta and soon to be on iOS and Android; allowing pet owners to log walking metrics such as duration, distance, and frequency of waste collection. These actions will convert into DAIKO tokens, a utility token that users can exchange, in a closed-loop ecosystem, for pet gear, in-app features, or real-world rewards.
The accompanying leash hardware, set for release in Q4 2025, includes an integrated poop container known as the “DooPod.” It is designed for both functionality and aesthetics. According to the company, over 10,000 users have already signed up through the promotional campaigns currently underway.
Founder David Byrne explains the core objective. “Our goal is to make pet care engaging and fun for the owner. We’re enabling them to turn daily activities into small wins, reinforced through tokenized incentives.”
DAIKO’s ambitions extend beyond physical products. The company will also introduce Virtual Pets, digital twins of real-world dogs stored on-chain. These avatars will evolve based on actual care activities such as walking, grooming, or attending veterinary appointments. This adds a behavioural layer to the platform’s gamified structure.
DAIKO’s ecosystem leverages a circular economic model, with a target of 20% of net profits from leash sales allocated to repurchase DAIKO tokens, which are then redistributed through the platform’s rewards pool. This approach not only supports token liquidity but also aligns the company’s revenue with community incentives.
The market potential is significant. With the global pet care industry projected to surpass $250 billion and over 500 million crypto users worldwide, many of whom are also pet owners, DAIKO aims to capitalize on the intersection of consumer wellness, gamification, and decentralized finance.
“The gamification of care encourages better habits,” Byrne adds. “We want to provide gentle behavioral nudges, whether it is more frequent vet visits or daily walks, and reward users for positive engagement.”
DAIKO’s innovation signals a broader shift in consumer technology. Incentivizing real-world action through blockchain-based rewards is gaining traction. By aligning pet ownership with decentralized systems, the company is positioning itself at the frontier of both Web3 adoption and responsible pet care.
