Pedalshield — Ride private. Earn shielded.

The problem

Your fitness app is a surveillance device with a leaderboard.

Heatmaps have exposed military bases, stalking victims, and people's home addresses. The deal was rewards for data. We think that deal is robbery — so we built the opposite.

How it works

Three steps. Zero route data leaves your phone.

Ride

GPS and motion sensors track your ride locally, right on your device.

Verify on-device

An anti-cheat engine scores the ride on your phone. Only the distance claim leaves the device — never the route. Enforced by a unit test, not a privacy policy.

Get paid, shielded

An autonomous treasury pays shielded ZEC straight to your wallet. No operator approves it. No one watches it.

Proof, not promises

Already paying real riders, automatically, on mainnet.

Every claim maps to a transaction you can look up yourself on the Zcash block explorer.

492 m

Real outdoor ride verified on-device and paid automatically — no human in the loop.

What we won't pretend

Honest by design.

Privacy is the product, not yield. Here's what's true today — and what isn't yet.

Payouts are small. ~0.0002 ZEC/km, capped. This is privacy you can feel good about — not a money-printer.
Anti-cheat is layered, not perfect. We catch cars, walks, and spoofs with defence-in-depth, and we publish what it doesn't catch.
ZK route proofs are roadmap, not live. The privacy you get today comes from never transmitting the route — the extra cryptographic proof is coming later.
Community-signed treasury is coming. The threshold-signing ceremony works today; the final Zcash spend-auth swap is on the roadmap.
