STEPN price prediction: Checking up on the fitness app token
The Web3 lifestyle app wants to gamify the fitness sector. What shape is the token in?
Contents
Described as a lifestyle app with social finance (socialFi) and play-to-earn (gameFi) elements, STEPN is the first NFT project based on the move-to-earn concept.
Co-founded in August 2021 by Australian developers Jerry Huang and Yawn Rong, STEPN achieved success in the 2021 Solana Ignition hackathon contest, before going on to secure a $5m funding round led by private-equity giant Sequoia Capital.
In March 2022, STEPN released its governance token, the Green Metaverse Token (GMT) on Solana. GMT allows holders to propose and vote on project developments and treasury distribution.
In the following article, we check out the latest stepn price action, before heading into a stepn price prediction. But what is stepn (GMT)? And is stepn (GMT) a good investment? Let’s have a look.
How does STEPN work?
The STEPN app aims to promote an active lifestyle. Users of the app mint their own Sneaker NFTs, which generate in-app rewards based on how many steps the owner takes. Your unique Sneaker NFT can be pimped up with special attributes, including resilience, efficiency and comfort to earn better rewards.
These Sneaker NFTs can be bought, sold and swapped on the in-app marketplace. STEPN’s business model revolves around in-app taxes, which are applied to all transactions performed on the platform. A portion of these profits goes to carbon-removal credits.
Users do not necessarily need to own a Sneaker NFT to engage in the move-to-earn economy. Instead, you can rent a Sneaker NFT and split the profits with the owner.
Following a strategic investment from Binance Labs on 6 April, STEPN announced a collaboration with Japanese sports company Asics, consisting of 1,000 exclusive sneaker NFTs available for purchase on the Binance NFT marketplace.
Green Metaverse Token: The numbers
According to STEPN, the fully diluted GMT coin has a circulating figure of 6 billion. CoinMarketCap puts the current circulating supply at 600 million. Trading at a value of $1.18, the market capitalisation is $709m. Trading volume is constantly high. A recent 24-hour volume of $543.67m was 65.6% of market capitalisation.
In terms of token distribution, 30% is reserved for move-to-earn rewards and 30% is kept in an ecosystem fund. The development team holds 14.1% of supply while 16.3% was reserved for private sales and 7% for public sales. An advisory board, which includes Scott Dunlap, vice-president of Adidas’s mobile division, was given 2.5% of supply. Vesting schedules are in place until 2029.
