It's time to SWEAT it out!
Before anything else, note that all photos used in this post were taken from my Sweatcoin app.
I opened my Sweatcoin app earlier and saw these notifications pop up. Apparently, Sweatcoin has joined the crypto wagon and released their own token called SWEAT.
There is no specific date yet as when is the launching but early users are being given SWEAT tokens and they are matching the amount of Sweatcoins you have earned so far.
My balance as of the moment is this.
For every 1,000 steps that you make, you get to earn 1 Sweatcoin. The balance I have in my app has been accumulated over the months that I have been using this app. I have been mentioning Sweatcoin here in read and in noise. Before, I can't find a way to redeem my earnings other than through vouchers from eBay or Amazon. Since I don't utilize those, I was not able to earn from my it.
However, there are other ways that you can use your Sweatcoin and that is through donation to charities. That is what I did with my previous balance before my current one. I donated all those to charities.
Then I started earning again and decided to hold since I can't find the right charity to support. What's more, there are other means that I can help and that is by joining the challenges in the app. If these challenges are accomplished, Sweatcoin with donate a certain amount for the cause that is what the challenges are for.
So when I got the notification above, I just followed the prompt in creating a wallet.
Unfortunately, there are countries that are excluded from using Sweatcoin. Curious that USA, China and the rest of the countries mentioned above are excluded.
I found out from this site that Sweatcoin is London based. Furthermore, according to that site, the currency of Sweatcoin is built on Etherium and its blockchain provider is NEAR.
It is also mentioned that SWEAT can be converted to other crypto or fiat and there will be staking too. There has always been the idea of crypto as reward but it is only now that that idea came into fruition.
As stated in the photo above, your first 5,000 steps every day will be equivalent to 1 SWEAT. For sure you will be able to buy SWEAT tokens but the main purpose of this app is to encourage users to move and that their steps will be paid. That's the reason why apps like this are created. We have to keep moving to stay fit. We all know that exercise is important in our lives. We all know how beneficial exercise is.
So if you like to walk just like me, why not join Sweatcoin and let your steps be incentivized? Walking is one of the easiest form of exercise. You don't need a lot of gears or equipment. You can walk at your own pace. You can do it anytime. You can even do stationary walking.
If there is play to earn, then there is move to earn too. Join the 63 million users of Sweatcoin and hit two birds with one stone - being fit and at the same time earning from it.
Interesting things lie in wait for Sweatcoin and SWEAT.
I wish my country will also be included by the regions of sweetcoins
