STEPN is a Web3 lifestyle app with inbuilt Game-Fi and Social-Fi elements. STEPN is built around an essential daily activity for most people – moving around. We are the first project to effectively bring to life a functioning move-to-earn concept. Users equip themselves with NFTs in the form of Sneakers. By walking, jogging, or running outdoors, users will earn in-game currency, which can either be used in-game or cashed out for profit. With Game-Fi, STEPN aims to nudge millions toward a healthier lifestyle, combat climate change, and connect the public to Web3, all while simultaneously hinging on its Social-Fi aspect to build a long-lasting platform fostering user-generated Web3 content.
