STEPN GO opens registration for Marathon Challenge Season 3 with teams

In Brief:

• STEPN (official site) GO has opened registration for Marathon Challenge Season 3, allowing players to join through the FSL marathon site.
• The updated format introduces insurance for one missed day and enhances social engagement among players.
• Season 3 runs from August 10 to August 24, emphasizing daily commitment as the main challenge.

Registration opens for Season 3

STEPN GO is now accepting registrations for its Marathon Challenge Season 3. Players can sign up until August 10, with the first round starting the same day and lasting until August 24. The challenge draws heavily from community feedback, introducing changes designed to enhance competition, tracking, and teamwork.

Core mechanics

Participants select a reward pool by locking 50, 100, or 200 USD and must engage daily, using at least 2 Energy in either STEPN or STEPN GO throughout the season’s six rounds, each spanning 14 days. Players who miss a day are eliminated, losing their entry unless they re-register.

Successful participants share the pooled funds forfeited by those who drop out. This structure adds tangible stakes to daily participation, emphasizing consistency as both a challenge and a reward.

New features for Season 3

Season 3 introduces a significant change: players can now benefit from insurance for one missed day, addressing earlier concerns over the harsh all-or-nothing status. This adjustment aims to soften the challenge while retaining the original emphasis on consistent activity.

Enhanced social features include improved team dynamics, personalized avatars, and custom Marathon names, making the experience more engaging. Leaderboards provide clear insights into overall standings, enhancing player interaction.

About STEPN GO

STEPN GO is a move-to-earn app from FSL, expanding the model established by its predecessor, STEPN. Users earn cryptocurrency by moving outdoors while equipped with NFT sneakers. While the app is free to download, earning requires owning an NFT sneaker, typically ranging from 50 to 300 USD based on market conditions.

Additionally, sneakers possess stats like Efficiency and Resilience, affecting users’ earnings and rewards within the app. The MARathon Challenge bridges STEPN and STEPN GO, allowing players to manage their Energy across both platforms.

GGT and GMT tokens

The in-game economy revolves around GGT as the primary earning token, similar to GST in STEPN. Players earn GGT based on their sneaker attributes and can increase daily earning caps by leveling up or burning gems. GMT serves as a governance token, indicating broader utilities across FSL’s ecosystem.

Long-term engagement strategy

FSL aims to address the challenge of sustaining user engagement in the move-to-earn model. By linking rewards to daily consistency rather than sporadic activity, Season 3 encourages habit-building among players while making commitments less daunting.

The recent updates reflect a responsive approach to community feedback, reinforcing FSL’s focus on player input. With registration open through August 10, STEPN GO calls on both existing and new users to participate for the upcoming season, where consistent effort shapes the potential rewards.
