STEP APP SHUTS DOWN TODAY ๐จ๐๐
Step App is a walk-to-earn app (walk or run, the app pays coins). After 4 years, all services wind down on 21 August 2026. ๐ถ๐ธ
If $FITFI is still locked, still in the in-app wallet, or still on Step Network (Step App's own extra chain), those coins can get stuck when the app and move tools die. ๐๐
If the coins already sit on Avalanche C-Chain (the main Avalanche chain) in a normal self-custody wallet, and they are not staked, they stay the user's coins after the app dies.
1) unstake locked $FITFI (take it out of the lock)
2) move it from Step Network to Avalanche C-Chain
3) use only official Step App links, then check the coins arrived โ ๏ธ
Old unstake rules gave a wait, or about a 16% cut to leave right away. On shutdown day, waiting is already too late. Some users already said they could not trade FITFI / KCAL, and could not use the Step Network bridge.
๐ต 5 August 2026: official shutdown notice. Unstake and clean exchange positions.
๐ก 18 August 2026: Bithumb ended FITFI spot trading.
๐ด 21 August 2026: services wind down.
The walking was real: more than 1 million downloads, and billions of steps tracked. In 2022 the team raised about $2.75M in a public token sale. ๐ฆ
Walk-to-earn paid old users with new coins. That only keeps working if new people keep joining. When joining slowed, the pay died. ๐ง
STEPN is a different walk-to-earn app and is still running. Sweat Economy is inviting leftover Steppers. Separate products. Separate risk. Some Sweat users already worry that SWEAT is losing exchange listings too.
ever used an app that paid you to walk? ๐
