How much $SWEAT can I earn a day?

💡 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).

TGE (Token Generation Event) – what it was and what happened to the tokens

What was the TGE? The Token Generation Event (TGE) marked the official launch of $SWEAT on September 12th, 2022. At that moment, the Foundation took a snapshot of users' sweatcoin balances and allocated $SWEAT at a 1:1 ratio — one $SWEAT for every sweatcoin held by users who had opted into crypto. Over 5 billion $SWEAT tokens were distributed to more than 13 million users. Sweatcoin balances were not affected. These tokens were locked in a smart contract and set to unlock gradually over 24 months, with the final unlock on September 12th, 2024. What happened to unclaimed TGE tokens? The community voted to burn all unclaimed TGE tokens. Following the vote, approximately 1.5 billion unclaimed $SWEAT were permanently burned and the TGE lockup smart contract was destroyed — making any further claims impossible. Can I still claim my TGE tokens? No. The deadline has passed and the smart contract no longer exists. Unclaimed tokens were burned as per the community's decision. How did the burn affect my balance? If you claimed your TGE allocation in time, your balance is unaffected. If you did not claim before the deadline, those tokens were burned and are no longer recoverable. Why was this done? Burning unclaimed tokens reduces the circulating supply, helping to maintain $SWEAT's value and ensuring that only active, engaged users hold the token. What if I missed the deadline? Multiple notifications were sent ahead of the deadline, and a 30-day grace period was provided. Unfortunately, tokens that were not claimed during that period cannot be recovered.

Why Has My $SWEAT Minting Been Paused?

If your $SWEAT minting has stopped, there are four possible reasons. The first two are about inactivity; the other two are not, and they need different handling. 1. You haven't opened the Sweat Wallet app for 60 days or more Minting is paused until you log back in. Open Sweat Wallet and minting resumes right away. 2. You haven't opened the Sweatcoin app in the last 30 days The Sweatcoin app validates your steps, so it must be opened at least once every 30 days to keep minting active. Open it and minting resumes right away. 3. A security check on your steps is holding your earnings If you are using both apps every day and minting has still stopped, an anti-fraud check on your steps can hold your earnings back pending a review by the team. This is not something you can clear from the app. Contact support with your username, the email address linked to your account, the dates your minting stopped, and the exact text of any message you saw — that is what the review needs. 4. Your wallet is no longer connected to Sweatcoin ("near_disabled") If you or the app see the state near_disabled, this is not a security pause. It means your wallet is not connected — or no longer opted in to crypto — on the Sweatcoin side, so there is nothing validating your steps into $SWEAT. Opening both apps does not fix this one. Go through the connection steps in How does $SWEAT connect to Sweatcoin? to re-connect the wallet to your Sweatcoin account. What happens to my existing $SWEAT? It stays safe in every case above. Your existing $SWEAT is not affected by a pause, and minting picks up again once the cause is cleared. Keeping minting active Open Sweat Wallet at least once every 60 days and the Sweatcoin app at least once every 30 days.

How do I delete my Sweat Wallet account and my data?

There is no in-app self-delete for Sweat Wallet — deletion is processed manually on request. To request it, contact support with the email address linked to your account and your Sweatcoin username, and ask for account and data deletion. Both details are needed to identify the account. A few important things to know before you do: - Transfer your $SWEAT out first. Deletion is irreversible on the app side: you lose access to the wallet through the app, so treat any remaining $SWEAT, active Grow Jars, and pending rewards as lost. - The blockchain address itself cannot be erased. A wallet is an anonymous public address on the NEAR blockchain — the public ledger is immutable by design. What deletion removes is your app access and the personal data linked to your account; the address itself holds no personal information. - Simply uninstalling the app does not delete anything — your wallet stays on-chain and your tokens remain safe as long as you keep your login (activation email / seed phrase). Deleting your data on the Sweatcoin side Your personal data lives with your Sweatcoin account, and you can delete that yourself in the Sweatcoin app: Profile → Settings → Help → Account → Delete Account. Formal data-deletion requests (GDPR / CCPA) Right-to-erasure requests are processed manually by the team — submit them through support with the email linked to your account and your Sweatcoin username. Each request is handled by a person rather than automatically, and you will be told once the deletion is complete.

What is Multichain ("1 1 1") in Sweat Wallet?

Sweat Wallet's multichain experience is as simple as "1 1 1": - 1 Wallet — manage assets on any supported chain without creating separate accounts, saving separate keys, or funding each chain with its own gas token. - 1 Key — the one key you use with Sweat Wallet (social login / Magic Key, upgradable to a seed phrase) manages your accounts on every chain, via NEAR Chain Signatures and an MPC network. - 1 Token — $SWEAT pays gas on every supported chain. You never need to buy ETH, BNB, or any other gas token — you can literally pay your fees with your feet. The $SWEAT that pays the fee is always taken from your NEAR-side balance; see Paying for transactions on other chains below. Supported chains: NEAR, Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum, and Binance Smart Chain (BSC). More chains are planned. Do I need to activate anything? No — multichain works out of the box. You get a unified view of all your assets across all chains on one screen, and you can send, bridge, swap, buy, and receive any supported token. (Older app versions had a one-tap "Activate Multichain" step; it has been removed — no activation is needed anymore.) Paying for transactions on other chains - The fee for a transaction on any chain is paid in $SWEAT drawn from your NEAR-side balance, and it has to be liquid $SWEAT — $SWEAT locked in a Grow Jar cannot pay it. Holding ETH or BNB in your wallet does not help; the app does not use them for fees. - "Not enough to cover transaction" means exactly that: not enough $SWEAT on the NEAR side. It does not mean you are missing a gas token for the destination chain. - SWEAT MAX free transactions cover NEAR-network transactions only. Transactions on other chains are charged normally. - Bringing $SWEAT back from Base or Ethereum to NEAR costs a fee that can exceed 10 $SWEAT, and that fee does not depend on how much you move — bridging a small amount back can cost more than the amount itself. Keep enough liquid $SWEAT on NEAR before you start. A bridge that looks stuck or "successful" but changed nothing A bridge attempt can show a success or pending state without having executed. Do not retry it blindly — if the first one is simply delayed, a retry can send twice. Instead: 1. Force-refresh your balance in the app. 2. Check the transaction in your in-app history. 3. Only consider retrying once you have confirmed the source balance is unchanged after the refresh — and if you are unsure, contact support with the transaction hash. dApps With WalletConnect you can connect Sweat Wallet to dApps on any supported chain and confirm transactions in the wallet.
