💡 Update : In July 2024, the community voted to change the minting window mechanism. Before 2024, users could earn $SWEAT for every step up to 10,000 per day according to the minting curve. After July 2024, users earn $SWEAT for steps from 3,000-10,000, according to the minting curve.
$SWEAT is minted, or earned, from your steps. When you walk, your steps are validated via the Sweatcoin app, and you mint steps according to the plan you are on.
Users on the Free Plan earn $SWEAT for every step they take between 3,000 and 10,000 a day. Users will also earn sweatcoins from steps 0-10,000 a day.
Users on the Sweatcoin Premium Plan earn $SWEAT for every step from 0 to 20,000 per day — there is no 3,000-step warm-up on Premium. Users will also earn sweatcoins from steps 0-20,000 a day.
SWEAT MAX subscribers (Sweat Wallet's premium subscription — separate from Sweatcoin Premium) also convert steps from 0 to 20,000 per day with no warm-up, roughly doubling what the free tier can earn. SWEAT MAX is live and available in all countries.
With both subscriptions active (SWEAT MAX + Sweatcoin Premium), steps from 0 up to 30,000 per day convert to $SWEAT.
You can also earn $SWEAT by completing short lessons, using the Spin the Wheel feature, and winning rewards.
Why can I only earn $SWEAT after 3,000 steps a day?
We’re on a mission to make the world more physically active. To that end, we held a community vote in 2024 where more than 70% of voters chose to change the Minting Window (from 0-5K steps a day to 3K-10K steps a day).
