Version 3.0 – December 2025
DeCleanup Network is a global infrastructure for coordinating environmental cleanups and converting them into verifiable, onchain impact. We unite individuals, communities, and organizations into a shared ecosystem where every cleanup generates a measurable digital asset: an Impact Product.
The network operates across two chains, each designed for a specific function:
- Base – fast action, lightweight logging, social incentives, $bDCU rewards
- Celo – full-feature dApp, governance, analytics, reputation, Hypercerts, $cDCU
Our vision is to make environmental cleanup action visible, verifiable, and rewarded at a global scale.
To mobilize millions of people into measurable environmental action by transforming real cleanup events into provable, composable digital impact assets. Through transparent verification, community incentives, and shared infrastructure, DeCleanup enables environmental stewardship to become scalable, trackable, and economically meaningful.
Environmental pollution continues to accelerate, yet:
- There are no lasting incentives for cleanup actions
- There is no standardized way to measure, verify, or track environmental work
- Local cleanup efforts are fragmented, lacking a shared global infrastructure
- Traditional systems rely on unverifiable or private reporting
- Funding models rarely reward grassroots impact
DeCleanup solves these problems by combining Web3, verifiable credentials, and decentralized governance with real-world action.
DeCleanup Network is a global community dedicated to environmental cleanups and measurable impact.
- Expand environmental impact through individual and community cleanups
- Tokenize real-world actions into dynamic digital assets
- Incentivize participation using rewards, reputation, and gamification
- Partner with ReFi communities, NGOs, student groups, DAOs, and impact organizations worldwide
- 500+ active participants targeted within the next year
- 15+ partnerships with global communities & ReFi ecosystems
- 1,000+ verified cleanups within the next year
- 200% increase in active wallets and dApp usage
Active on: Farcaster, Base, Celo, and global ReFi hubs
DeCleanup began by connecting with high-impact communities such as:
- GreenPill Network & ReFi DAO
- ReFi Phangan, GreenPill Phangan, ReFi Tulum
- Aqua Purge Web3
- HEM Japan – early partner with 12 new wallets and recurring Monthly Earth Day cleanups
- UNN Nigeria (Pesathon Campaign) – environmental education + campus cleanup initiative
We also coordinated a cleanup during Devcon Bangkok, followed by a celebration with PizzaDAO.
(Current Base Mini App + Basic Logging)
Users document cleanups using a simple web app or directly on Farcaster
- Clean a location (solo or group)
- Snap before/after photos with GPS + timestamps
- Submit Proof of Impact
- Get verified by community or admin
- Earn rewards ($bDCU on Base, Impact Points, Impact Product upgrades)
As submissions accumulate, each user’s Impact Product evolves.
