Animoca Brands, a leader in advancing digital property rights within gaming and the open metaverse, has announced an exciting partnership with GEODNET, the largest decentralized Real-Time Kinematics (RTK) network globally. This collaboration aims to push the boundaries of mixed-reality gaming and integrate innovative location technology into various consumer applications.
The partnership marks a significant step towards the development of advanced location and mixed-reality technologies. Animoca Brands has also made a strategic investment in GEODNET, supporting its growth within the Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Network (DePIN) community. This move will help bridge the physical and virtual realms, enhancing the overall user experience.

Its DePIN of Satellite Miners provides centimeter-level accuracy, enabling developers to create engaging mixed-reality applications that seamlessly blend digital and physical worlds. We’re also thrilled to welcome GEODNET into both the Moca Network and the broader Animoca Brands ecosystem, where its innovative technology can drive the next generation of location-based Web3 experiences.”
This partnership aligns with GEODNET’s recent governance initiative (GIP4), which aims to enable Web3 mobile apps powered by precise location technology. Mike Horton, project creator of GEODNET, stated: “We believe Web3 gaming and ownership experiences will drive novel future use cases for GEODNET’s precise Proof-of-Location, so we are thrilled to partner with Animoca Brands and the Mocaverse community.”
