What is Step App?

Step App is a protocol that helps create a gamified metaverse for the fitness economy. Its protocol enables users to earn, compete, and network powered by augmented reality and blockchain. It provides staking, liquidity incentives, locks, buybacks, and burn services. 

Fitness is a new mantra in the gaming metaverse and is fast catching people’s attention.

While the FITFI token helps in the governance of the metaverse that blends the digital and physical world, the NFTs and the geo-location technology enable the real transaction.

One can earn KCAL tokens by signing up on the platform’s beta app and connecting it to their wallets. The beta phase would be temporary, but pre-signers can earn daily ‘FAT points’.

Early adopters will get an opportunity to multiply their FAT points on referrals. The FAT points can be converted into KCAL tokens after paying a conversion fee by burning FITFI tokens.
