Movement Is All You Need.

The Whitepaper for the Movement Economy is here.

The launch hype’s behind us. The building never stopped.

This month we launched something that’s been in the works for a while: the official Movement Economy Whitepaper.

Not because it’s what crypto projects do, but because we needed something more concrete. A clear, public commitment to what we believe, $SWEAT’s role in the Movement Economy, and where we’re going next.

In the Attention Economy, your data was the product.
In the Movement Economy, your action is your asset.

This is the foundation of the Movement Economy.

Let’s take a step back — why now?

This started way before crypto.

In 2015, we launched Sweatcoin, with a simple goal: incentivize healthier lifestyles by rewarding physical activity.

It worked. Sweatcoin became one of the most downloaded health & fitness apps on the planet. But the rewards stayed inside a closed loop — points you could spend, but not truly own.

So in 2022, we took the leap.

We launched $SWEAT and the Sweat Wallet, turning those steps into a real, on-chain asset. And in doing so, we delivered the largest token generation event in web3 history — with over 13.5 million unique users receiving $SWEAT they’d already walked for in past years.

That moment said everything: People believe their movement has value.

Now, with millions of $SWEAT holders and new utility coming online fast, we knew it was time to put the Movement Economy on paper.

What’s inside the Whitepaper?

🧠 The Philosophy

We unpack what the Movement Economy really is, and why it matters.

It’s the evolution of fitness apps, and a rejection of the Attention Economy model that built trillion-dollar empires and gave nothing back.

In a world where Big Tech profited off your attention, we’re building a system that rewards your action. Movement becomes the input. $SWEAT is the currency. And ownership stays where it belongs — with you.

📈 The Tokenomics

The Movement Economy runs on one thing: proof of movement. And $SWEAT is the asset that captures it.

Here’s a brief look at how the tokenomics are structured:

• 🥾 Minted through physical activity
  $SWEAT is minted through verified steps, and can be integrated with other Movement Validators over time for more exercises.
• 📉 $SWEAT’s deflationary framework:
  We ensure scarcity and protect value over time through two primary mechanisms: more effort to mint over time and token burns.
• 🔄 Real utility, not just speculation
  Inside the Sweat Wallet, $SWEAT can be used to opt into raffles, boost rewards, access premium features, and more. Utility is tied directly to user engagement and demand.
• 🔥 Profitable Buybacks
  SWEAT is working to generate sustainable revenues. When we reach profitability, we will use at least 50% of profits to buy-back $SWEAT and burn it.
• 🧱 Designed for newbies and natives
  $SWEAT is built for integration — across chains, apps, and DeFi. Allowing you to use $SWEAT you’ve earned by walking for all your gas needs.

$SWEAT is a scalable, demand-driven asset that links physical activity to real digital ownership.

How we’ll hold ourselves to it

This whitepaper is a promise, so we’re treating it like a living document:

• It will be updated transparently when things evolve.
• It guides how we build, communicate, and collaborate.
• It will keep us accountable to the people who power this economy, you.

If it doesn’t benefit users, it doesn’t belong in the Movement Economy. Simple.
