Hey there, fellow adventurers! Who else is bouncing around with a spring in their step, thanks to a groovy move-to-earn app on their mobile? This is me! I jumped on the GazaGO platform, an M2E creation by Staika, to chase some serious moola knowing quite well that walking isn't my passion but hey, cash flow is king! This all started out with a simple  notification about $STIK coming to Bitget by the 31st, I got interested and ended up signing up for GazaGO. Now I'm pounding the pavement, running errands like a champ and having a blast. Come on, let's hear it! Am I the only one on this wacky and wonderful adventure? 😆

I think I've heard of this before with sweatcoin. But I have no idea where they are right now and how they're doing.

I am sure that there are many that are looking forward to this concept. But, just because of those early projects that have the same concept and failed, I don't think that many don't want to dive in anymore with such projects. I also remember that project where they were selling shoes since it was required for their walk to earn algo but I think that didn't become a thing anymore because it was like NFT shoes as required. These things have been good during the hype but not anymore today. So, if there are projects like what you're optimistic about. I am just telling you that everything is possible so that it won't hurt you a lot and won't be painful if ever you see that it's not doing well.

Move 2 earn projects are still in their nascent stage. If my memory serves me right STEPN which was the birth of the concept started about two years ago with GMT making some impressive run for the early birders but it's important we understand M2E project ain't primarily focused on profit making but encouraging healthy living. Trading them could be the play or perhaps buy to hodl cos they are still nascent and needs time to fully develop and also I think more awareness is needed to also encourage adoption.

Oh yeahhh I get you. Actually I really did take part in those other M2E projects you talked about but I somehow have a feeling that this could be better and this is why I think so. It is a  product of Staika which currently is having a good price trend and most especially is getting listed on Bitget. Somehow I think this will rub off positively on this particular project. Don't you think so too? Or either way I still get to keep fit even though I hate it 😂😂

I think M2E is another reminder that the Web3 space can be rewarding to active participants. Albeit not so lucrative and requires one to engage in a lot of activities to yield significant rewards, but a little more activity isn’t entirely bad for the body right? Also If the token is solid, you get pleased with your ROI added to your improved lifestyle via the activities you engage in.

I believe that Move to earn concept was introduced last year but the interest of the market quickly shifted on other trend. It's a new concept and I don't know how it will perform in the future since I don't have idea how this concept works. I believe it's just a play to earn concept that you can earn a token as a reward on things that you achieve by performing the task. Maybe in the future, the market will realize the concept of it.

I do engage in P2E projects too. Staika also got a play to earn project DefenGO. Point is I saw that the STIK token would be listed on Bitget that was what prompted me to even look at the Staika project and boom 💥 I ended up signing up on all the earning products. I haven't really given much thought to which earns better tho. Point is I am doing it all for the little earnings 😅😅 do you get it?

I don't think being listed on a exchange that is not known is not relevant. It's just like being listed on an decentralized exchange because new exchange are trying to get as much customer as they can that's why they are not strict on listing tokens. I got your point and yeah it's like you are earning in play to earn games with micro earnings. I'm still unsure of it's future though but yeah we all have our own bias. If this move to earn concept blooms, I guess I'll regret this as I don't have plan to put my money into it.

Good to hear you are using move 2 earn the way it was designed but move 2 earn is long gone hype which means that you might just earning useless token in future despite exchange listings.  Most move 2 earn app’s required user to hold a certain amoutn of their utility token before you can start earning and unlock features.

I’m happy to use my fitbit to try my burned calories instead of using this crappy m2e dapps for the sake of earning penny. I’d rather ga,ble to earn a bit of money during my free time than rely om shit tokens.

Apparently no one else. The hype around Move-2-Earn projects ended when the mainstream hype around STEPN ended. All these models are fleeting and their life expectancy is extremely low. If some project is talked about very often in various social networks, it means that it is too late to invest in this project. All these projects have big problems with tokenomics and that is why the price of these tokens falls very often, and indefinitely.

I was using the app named sweatcoin for over 3 months, and was doing some exercises to get the coins on the app. When I reached at most of the coins, then I found the app is not working in my country. So, there are many apps that are not working more better according to their roadmap and functions.

I am pretty sure you can hack those phones to think you are constantly moving, which takes the whole point from those apps. I mean it's always good if people get moving but i don't understand where's the game theory here. Why would sweat coins or any other such coins would have value, unless they have a real utility.

And i am pretty sure that those apps collect all sort of info about you to sell to third parties. I can't believe they are popular.

thats good to hear, besides earning you could also get healthy, because we all know that nowadays feeling motivated to exercise is a blessing on its own.
I guess i'd also try out some of these apps, after all mantaining health is also good way of saving money since you most likely not gonna waste it heavily when you get sick.
however, i wonder what are the rates of the earned rewards usually though? even though its kinda small it still worth it if its not that small you know.
sometime some project would just give so small rewards that it isn't even worth it setting these things up for runs.

The idea of the project is very suspicious, and Bitget has a long history of closing accounts and supporting payment for investors under any pretext, so what you are talking about is scam.
If you have heard of it late, this does not negate that it exists and continues, and I do not know if you are sincere in this proposition, especially since there are several beginner accounts that have become promoting the same idea, so if this was motivated by coincidence, I advise you all to stay away from any investment related to Bitget.

For a while, M2E projects went viral, and people started downloading these apps and shaking their phones like crazy!!
But honestly, I have not tried such applications because I am convinced that they are a waste of time? Does anyone really profit from it?

Ones I have tried weren't available where I live, and they require so many permissions, being privacy conscious I do not feel safe giving them right to access.

Exactly that was the name of the project that I am trying to remember, the STEPN. They've been successful not until the bear market comes. We do have the idea that whatever project that becomes successful, if the bear market arrives, they'll be stomped and will be forced to be back to their usual form.

I have no idea yet with it but you know what's better for you and how you do check these projects. Basically, it came from you so you have all the idea if this is going to be the good one that you're looking for since you're probably invested on it. Anyway, good luck with this project and if ever you'll venture into other m2e projects.

I actually have. As a matter of fact I was able to donate some of my SWEAT coin for some charity organizations looking out for victims of earthquake. Although I didn't do much walking then, so I had to top up from my wallet on Bitget for that cause.  Aside from personal gains, being able to make that contribution was fulfilling.

Perhaps you got excited about the initial 2 move monetization, but then you realize that it doesn't deliver the exaggerated benefits you expected. And from the story it can be seen that you are satisfied with using the bracelet to track your burned calories instead of using a moving money-making app. Not all monetization apps offer exaggerated benefits though, and some tokens may become useless in the future. Better yet, enjoying your free time and earning a little extra money is naturally a great option.

If I am honest with you those "do x to earn" have always been suspicious to me as I do not think it is a model that can work for the long term, and I am not really interested in participating in something like that only to turn into a scam out of nowhere, with that being said this is probably one of the few models that if it turned into a scam but you did not invested any money in it and you actually took the time to walk and run, then you might still get something positive out of it.

You seem to be very excited about this one but you are not digging deep into the platform that you are supporting this is not the first nor the only one with this concept, and I regret investing in two of these projects with this kind of concept these are Superstep and Sweatcoin both projects are a big failure Sweatcoin is still in the market and doing good but I don't think they can sustain it, because concept based tokens are not for a long term, it's just a matter of time before they vanish in the market.

They are just excited on the idea but they didn't consider the risk beneath on this project since there are possibilities that same with your other concept investment that project might also fall. Beside this kind of project is not new so best to take extra precaution before participating since the same with last NFT craze there's a chance that this kind of new trend will fail and to bad if we can see another scam victims will post about their investment failures due to bad decisions.

Burning mechanism, unlimited supply, being too accessible. These characteristics have pulled down play to earn games last year. So if nothing will be changed from that core concept then expect for things to end with the same fate. I also hope there would be no rugpull before it end. And for those who are already in it, then maximize your day using it. It'll more likely be late for ones who are still not doing so. Efforts could be put into waste if such unfortunate thing will happen. As for now, it is profitable so people may still make ise of it as a faucet of rewards. There are nowadays different variations of such moving game problem is until when would it last.

What's wrong in trying if there is any that doesn't require any investment from you? I mean, if there is a Move To Earn project that only requires you to download the app, set it up, and start walking or running and you will start earning tokens based on that. If the project is legit and the tokens are worth something, it's a win-win situation for you since you are getting fit in the process as well, but even if it turns out to be a scam, you've still got some exercise inspired by it.

However, as far as I remember, I think the first Move to Earn project that was named Step. I think it required users to buy some sneakers or something before they become able to earn money by talking or running, since I didn't do it myself so I don't know much but I think it had a business model like that.

That's the problem, people get excited about the potential of something and they usually tend to ignore all the red flags. My wife is like that too, she can see something and get hyped about it, after she is hyped there is no logically explaining anything to her.

The dev of a project could come out and say "I am going to steal all your money" and she will be like "they are just joking" and still keep pouring more money in. Logical people are not that common in our world, it requires to be a bit of cynic and that means you are not going to enjoy anything as much as other people, you will always look for reasons that could be a problem and this causes you to never enjoy things until you are fully in it already.

The simplest explanation is that at heart most people are gullible and easy to deceive, if someone were to tell you they are a lawyer and they look the part then most likely you are going to believe them without the need to verify their story, and the same happens with investing, if a project seems to have everything in order that is more than enough for people to not take the time to see if this is actually the case, so scammers could eventually be honest about their intentions and people will still not believe them as the first impression they generated was so formidable that almost nothing will be able to convince their investors that they are about to get scammed.

Come on, I'm not pumping money into it. Walking is free I just use the app. Lol I understand your perspective and trust me I do my own research before investing into anything that requires my funds. I just wanted to know if people use these apps for the purpose of keeping fit or just for the fact that they promise to reward the efforts of users walking and engaging in daily activities.  I didn't buy GO which is the native token of the m2E app, I bought STIK instead during its listing on Bitget and that's how I got to know about the m2E app.


Lol you got me when you said your wife is like that. Lol women's tea ☕ I guess. But I don't just put in money without researching properly. Look...I hate walking yeah, and I think it is bad enough because I need to keep fit, but I installed this app because it rewards me for walking and now I am doing just that because of the reward idea. I'm not going to be investing money blindly when I can just walk and get whatever comes in. I'm not also saying that it is a get rich quick scheme or anything like that lol. Ps: I haven't even invested any money yet and I might not. I only invested in the project that made me know about this m2E platform, made some profits and that's as far as it gets.  

I actually appreciate the fact that you guys are practically genuinely looking out for the OP. (Me) ☺️☺️  this OP still has her money in her purse tho 🙂

:) Very good example. Indeed, adherents of a certain project see only good things in the projects they have brought their money to. It is useless to explain and prove anything to them. They will not believe it even if there is 100% proof of scam. Unfortunately, such cases happen every day, and most often they appear because people have heard about thousands of stories of great earnings on similar projects and therefore such a function as critical thinking is disabled.

I guess that there are a lot of people who think that "making money easily" is something they can do easily and the reality is that it's not true and we are not going to end up with anything like that at all. This means that we are going to end up with a situation where things are not going to be that easy and we are going to end up with a terrible result.

We should always be happy that things happen for a reason and we are going to end up with one of them being something that makes you profit, and you should avoid "make money easily" and just focus on what type of profit you could possibly make if you can and that's important, otherwise why would anyone make any type of profit that would be that easy and others won't do it too.
