Move to earn is a mechanic that gained massive popularity among players in 2022. It’s not just an opportunity to make money. This is an opportunity to combine earnings with a healthy lifestyle. The STEPN app managed not only to push the M2E mechanics to unprecedented heights but also to become the most popular game on the blockchain this year.
Like many games built on the principle of M2E or P2E, STEPN has two tokens: management and gaming. GMT (governance token ) is more valuable as it has a limited supply. GST (gaming token) is used in the game as earnings and is burned when implementing all gaming processes. You will learn more about tokenomics from our article.
STEPN: what’s the point?
The principle of the game is impossibly simple. You need to walk or run along the street, and in return, you will receive GST game tokens, which can later be exchanged for other cryptocurrencies and real money.
The game requires an application available on Android and IOS. Anyone who has an activation code can register. You can read how to get it here.
In addition, NFT running shoes are required. Getting them is already more complicated than the activation code. However, our team succeeded more than once. So read about sneakers here. And how to choose them correctly here. We even have a review of the popular STEPN guide that will help you calculate how much you will earn in particular sneakers.
That’s all. You start the game, press “Start,” – and the coins are already starting to pour into the wallet of your account. Yes, in STEPN, running or walking is encouraged by real money. However, you won’t be able to walk and earn money all day and night. Each user has a certain amount of energy per day.
Interesting Mechanics
Of course, we have described the main essence of the game. But ordinary walking or running would quickly bore users, even if they pay for it. And STEPN manages to maintain popularity. Due to what, you ask? Very simple. Developers are constantly introducing new mechanics that draw users into the game more and more.
Here is a list of all available game processes at the moment. Each item has a built-in link to an article where you can learn more about a particular game mechanic.
Sneakers in STEPN can be upgraded up to level 30. The higher the level, the higher the earnings. In the future, it is also planned to introduce GMT farming on level 30 sneakers. Currently, only a GST farm is available.

STEPN Worlds
The developers could not stop at all kinds of game additions. The game was initially built on the Solana blockchain. It remains so to this day; however, since May of this year, other worlds or Realms began to appear in STEPN. Various blockchains have been added on which the game is implemented.
The second world was BNB Realm (Binance Smart Chain), and the third was APE Realm (Ethereum). The creators of STEPN promised to introduce at least three more worlds into the game by the end of the year. What precisely these worlds will remain a mystery.
