> "Openfort has been transformative for our ecosystem. We've eliminated the traditional barriers of Web3 while preserving true asset ownership, allowing everyday users to effortlessly participate in our decentralized computing network." — Gaimin team

## The Challenge: Complex web3 onboarding creating barriers for DePIN adoption

[Gaimin](gaimin.io) operates a pioneering decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) that enables users to monetize their idle PC power through the gaimin.gg platform. Their network harnesses unused computing resources to power AI processing and file-sharing services for businesses and individuals. However, their ambitious vision of building a widely-accessible decentralized computing network faced significant technical barriers.

"Before implementing Openfort, our DePIN participants experienced multiple friction points that hampered network growth," explains the Gaimin team. "They were forced to redirect to third-party Web3 wallets, navigate complex wallet setup processes, and manage cryptic private keys—all substantial barriers for mainstream users who simply wanted to monetize their idle computing resources."

The challenges were multi-faceted:

- **Wallet Connectivity Issues:** Network participants had to leave the GAIMIN platform to connect external wallets, creating a disjointed experience.

- **Wallet Creation Complexity:** The traditional Web3 onboarding process, requiring seed phrase management, was overwhelming for non-crypto-native users wanting to join the network.

- **Gas Fee Complications:** Users needed to purchase and manage native tokens for each blockchain just to cover transaction fees, adding unnecessary complexity to the reward process.

- **Fragmented User Experience:** Gaimin needed to maintain a seamless experience across multiple platforms (gaimin. gg, gaimin. fan, and gaimin. cloud) while preserving the decentralized nature of their network.

The core challenge was clear: how could Gaimin maintain the benefits of a decentralized infrastructure network while delivering the intuitive, frictionless experience needed for mass adoption?

## The Solution: A fully integrated, Self-custodial wallet powering gamers

After evaluating potential partners, Gaimin selected Openfort based on their "strong development capabilities" and collaborative approach to customizing solutions. The implementation process was highly collaborative, resulting in a tailored Web3 experience that aligned perfectly with Gaimin's DePIN ecosystem needs.

The Openfort implementation delivered three critical capabilities:

1. **Fully Embedded Wallet Infrastructure:** Openfort's technology enabled Gaimin to create the Gaimin Smart Wallet (GSW), a self-custodial solution that eliminates redirections to third-party applications. Network participants can receive rewards and contribute computing resources throughout the ecosystem without leaving the familiar Gaimin interface.

2. **Simplified User Authentication:** Instead of managing seed phrases, users can access their Web3 wallets through an innovative two-layer authentication system—an initial password for their Gaimin account plus a separate recovery password that replaces traditional seed phrases, dramatically simplifying the process of joining the DePIN network.

3. **Gasless Transactions in $GMRX:** Openfort enabled Gaimin to cover all transaction fees using their native $GMRX token. This eliminated the need for users to acquire different tokens across various blockchains, removing a significant barrier to participating in the decentralized computing network.

"The integration process with Openfort was exceptionally smooth," notes the Gaimin team. "Their team worked closely with us to customize the solution to our exact requirements, allowing us to create a DePIN that truly scales to mainstream adoption."

## The Results: More than 50,000 users have migrated to smart wallets in just one month

While still in the early stages of user onboarding to their Smart Wallet, GAIMIN has already realized significant improvements across their entire DePIN ecosystem:

**Seamless Network Participation:** By eliminating redirections and simplifying wallet management, GAIMIN now offers what they describe as a "Web3-native yet Web2-feel" experience. Users can contribute computing resources and receive rewards without confronting unfamiliar blockchain interfaces or technical complexity.

**Accelerated Onboarding:** The streamlined wallet creation process has removed substantial barriers to entry for DePIN participation. **Over 50K people migrated to our new Gaimin SSO in the first month to gain access to our smart wallet**.

**Frictionless Rewards Distribution:** By covering all gas fees in $GMRX, Gaimin has created a seamless reward system throughout their ecosystem. This allows users to focus on contributing computing resources rather than managing multiple tokens for transaction fees.

**Platform Cohesion:** The single sign-on integration works seamlessly across all Gaimin platforms, creating a unified ecosystem where users' wallets remain connected as they move between services, ensuring continuity in their DePIN participation.

"Openfort's solution has been crucial in making decentralized infrastructure accessible to mainstream users who previously found Web3 too complicated," says the Gaimin team. "We're now able to harness idle computing power at scale by removing the traditional barriers to participation."

## Looking Forward

As user adoption of the Gaimin Smart Wallet continues to grow, the company anticipates further collaboration with Openfort to enhance functionality and scale their decentralized computing network. One upcoming feature will allow users to swap smart contract addresses via a one-click function when they forget their recovery password, further streamlining DePIN participation.

"Our partnership with Openfort has been instrumental in breaking down the traditional barriers between Web2 and Web3," concludes the Gaimin team. "We're now able to deliver true access to decentralized infrastructure with the simplicity users expect from mainstream applications—a combination that's essential for the next generation of DePIN solutions."

The Gaimin-Openfort partnership demonstrates how thoughtful implementation of Web3 infrastructure can preserve the benefits of decentralization while eliminating adoption barriers, creating a seamless pathway for mainstream users to participate in the decentralized physical infrastructure network.
