STEPN, the app that has revolutionized fitness through the “move-to-earn” model and its NFTs, is about to take a significant step forward in the realm of digital identity with the imminent launch of branded Web3 domains .stepn. 

This strategic move, carried out in collaboration with Unstoppable Domains, aims to simplify cryptocurrency transactions for millions of STEPN users and to provide a unified digital identity for fitness results and Web3 activities.

The collaboration of STEPN NFT with Unstoppable Domains

The announcement of the collaboration between STEPN and Unstoppable Domains was made in Brussels during the event EthCC on July 11, 2024. This partnership is part of a broader initiative aimed at integrating user-owned domains into the traditional Internet infrastructure.

Unstoppable Domains, the largest provider of Web3 domains in the world, and STEPN are ready to submit an application during the next round of ICANN applications in 2026.

The new top-level domain (TLD) .stepn offered by Unstoppable Domains will allow users to easily send and receive STEPN’s native token, GMT, along with all major criptovalute and NFTs, integrating STEPN into Unstoppable’s ecosystem which includes 865 partner applications.

These domains can be used to log in to various blockchains, including Solana and other EVM and non-EVM chains.

STEPN is an application that encourages users to exercise by rewarding them with digital assets. The platform combines elements of fitness tracking, gamification, and blockchain to create a unique ecosystem that promotes a healthy lifestyle.

Through GPS, STEPN tracks users’ movements in real-time and rewards them with GMT and GST, STEPN’s native tokens, for the distance covered and the quality of the Sneaker NFT in their possession.

Since the launch, the STEPN community has covered more than 300 million kilometers, burning 20 billion calories and offsetting 21 million kilograms of carbon along the way. The app continues to grow, with two to three million active users monthly.

A future of opportunities

Recently, STEPN has expanded its reach with the release of STEPN GO, a social-lifestyle app that includes a decentralized marketplace where users can buy and sell items such as Sneaker, Shoe Boxes, and more. 

Available on the Apple App Store and the Google Play Store for Android, STEPN GO features the user-friendly Haus system for easy sharing of Sneaker and an Interactive Map to showcase personalized avatars and outfits, enhancing both social connectivity and user engagement.

The launch of .stepn domains represents an important step towards the mass adoption of Web3 technologies. STEPN users will not only benefit from simpler and more secure crypto transactions, but they will also be able to create unique profiles, earn rewards, and participate in an integrated digital ecosystem. 

The collaboration with Unstoppable Domains strengthens STEPN’s position as a leader in the “move-to-earn” application sector and in the Web3 world, offering its users new opportunities to explore and experience the blockchain in an intuitive and accessible way.

Conclusion

With the introduction of .stepn domains, STEPN and Unstoppable Domains are shaping the future of digital identity and crypto transactions. This initiative not only simplifies access to cryptocurrencies and NFTs, but also promotes a healthy and sustainable lifestyle by connecting the world of fitness with the possibilities offered by blockchain technology. 

While STEPN continues to innovate and expand its ecosystem, users can expect further developments and improvements that will make the “move-to-earn” experience even more rewarding and engaging.

MakersPlace, the premier marketplace for rare and authentic digital artworks, today announced that The Holoverse, the first company to tokenize historical masterpieces with rights and make them into holographic NFTs, is releasing a first-of-its-kind holographic NFT of Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece, La Bella Principessa, which will be auctioned on April 21, 2022 with a starting bid at $100,000. Using this groundbreaking technology, Old Master artworks can now be viewable, when people do not have access to the originals. 

Andrea Prince, co-founder and CEO of The Holoverse, said:

“We are honored to breathe new life into old masterpieces like this one with our proprietary Holo NFT technology. This painting is not on permanent loan to a museum, and very few have been able to see it,” 

The Holoverse is the first company to tokenize historical masterpieces with rights and make them into holographic NFTs. Masters of art such as Leonardo, Raffaello, Michelangelo, Caravaggio and many others are the pillars in the history of art in the universe. 

The goals of The Holoverse

The Holoverse looks to maintain this heritage in eternity, taking advantage of what the latest technologies in the world have to offer, creating a new value and a new life for the masterpieces that have shaped history. The Holo NFT represents the perceived value of a digital asset. For the first time, those who purchase a valuable NFT will be able to enjoy its ownership to fruition, with a true piece of design.

Leonardo Terzulli, Co-founder and CMO of The Holoverse, said:

“Now someone can have it displayed in their home or office in the physical realm, while unlocking new capabilities for viewing it in the digital world. We knew MakersPlace was the right venue to launch such a rare and valuable piece of art,” 

The auction winner will own the first-ever HoloNFT of Leonardo da Vinci’s masterpiece, La Bella Principessa, a portrait of a young Milanese aristocrat in a beautiful renaissance dress, which will be on display at a world-renowned museum in Italy this fall. The HoloNFT comes in digital and physical formats. 

The original canvas is scanned into a multi-gigabyte photogrammetry image that enables the viewer to zoom in and experience the work in more detail than the naked eye could see. The unique 1:1 hologram will be encased in a crystal case (73cm x 73cm x 12cm), viewable in daytime and night, and will be delivered and installed with white glove service. 

Craig Palmer, CEO of MakersPlace, said:

“When I saw this piece in person, I was astounded by the amount of detail the hologram provides. This technology creates a whole new experience when it comes to viewing artwork. 

Nowhere else can you see such minute details of an Old Master, and zoom in at will to really see the texture of the lines and canvas.”

The hologram is slightly larger than the original, as it improves the performance and visual impact (50cm x 35cm). The hologram is generated by rotation at very high speed (900 rotations per minute) of four blades containing 256 micro LEDs and microprocessors, which use an algorithm to compose the work in the air.

MakersPlace, one of the first NFT marketplace

MakersPlace is the premier NFT marketplace for digital art. Launched in 2018, MakersPlace utilizes blockchain technology to facilitate the sale of authentic, original digital artwork, ensuring rarity and ownership for both creators and collectors. 

MakersPlace has emphasized accessibility since its inception and has attracted a large mainstream audience as the first NFT marketplace to accept both cryptocurrency (ETH) and non-cryptocurrency (USD) payments, which it facilitates through crypto wallet and credit card transactions, respectively. 

MakersPlace helped catapult digital art and NFTs onto the global stage, with the historic sale of Beeple’s Everydays: The First 5000 Days for $69.3 million in partnership with Christie’s auction house in March 2021 – the record price for any digital artwork. Our mission is simple: to enable a vibrant future for digital creativity.
