STEPN is a lifestyle application for Web3, and it comprises gamification design and some fun social elements. The network equips users with non-fungible token (NFT) sneakers to earn Green Satoshi Token (GST) by walking, running outdoors, or jogging.
Notably, the GST token is the gaming token of STEPN, and it can be used to mint or level up new sneakers.
STEPN was developed by an Australia-based fintech studio called Find Satoshi Lab, and it won the Solana Ignition Hackathon Gaming Track last year.
What is the GMT token, and why is it rising?
Apart from the GST token, STEPN has a governance token called the Green Metaverse Token (GMT). The token has been rising since its launch on March 9, and it clocked an all-time high of US$ 1.16 per token on March 29.
The GMT crypto could be used to burn in the STEPN app and access features provided by the lifestyle app like minting sneakers and participating in governance voting.
The GMT token could be rising due to a teaser by STEPN on Twitter. STEPN tweeted on Monday that it could partner up with Binance, which would be the beginning of many possibilities.
