Do you know that you can be rewarded simply for taking a few steps a day?
We all walk. Some of us more than others, but all of us do some steps per day. And most of the time we are walking, we have our mobile either in our hands or in a pocket, or maybe in our bag. And there are dApps that can reward us for the time we spend exercising!
A few years that would sound unbelievable (and to some extend it still does :)).
But this is one of the good things that Web3 is all about. Autonomy, rewards, freedom.
I have been using 
Yes, it's been this long that this dApp exists :)
And I dont want to hide the fact that I did try different apps too :)
In this post I will discuss about a few similarities and some differences between
This will not be an extensive list, but it will give you an idea of how these apps work and you may decide to use one of them or both!
Actifit launched in 2018
Actifit kicked off in June 2018 as an innovative and disrupting social project, that incentivizes healthy lifestyle by rewarding its users for living healthier, making it the first social, gamified, cross-chain, multi-reward, move-to-earn project.
The sweat economy token launched on 13 September 2022
Let's take a look at some similarities
- Both of the apps reward their users with tokens for their steps.
- Both of the apps count the steps that their users take.
- Both of the apps count their steps both in Android and on iPhone mobile phones.
- In both apps, you can watch a few ads for some extra rewards.
- Both apps have physical & digital items in their Market.
- Both apps reward in tokens that can be converted to ca$h :)
Let's take a look at some of their differences
- Using SweatCoin, you earn only $SWEAT tokens. The user earns approximately 1 $SWEAT every 5.500 steps (which equals roughly to $0.01) CoinMarketCap
(It will take the user approximately 2.5 years to earn $10 if the prices do not change until then. It is not a stable coin, but it is stable to 0.01 for the recent many many months :)
- Actifit rewards you in AFIT tokens, but you also receive a number of other tokens when you post with Actifit. You earn $sports and additionally $hive and $hbd - not to mention other tokens if you use other tags in your posts.
There is not limit to how many tokens you will be able to earn with every actifit post.
With Sweatcoins, you need two different apps in your phone. The sweatcoins app and the wallet app.
With actift, you only need one app.
- With sweatcoins, you can get lonely. (At least I do)
- Posting with actifit, you are a part of a great, amazing and supportive community.
- Using sweatcoins, you are just using the app.
- Using actifit means that you are a part of hive blockchain, thus you have access to all hive-based applications!
Please note: To be able to be rewarded with AFIT tokens, you will need to have 5000 afit in your account. You can either earn that by delegating hive power to
Also, if you join sweatcoins, make sure to visit the Learn and Earn for some extra $sweat - without real sweat :)
There is still a lot to mention, but the above is enough to give you an understanding of how things work.
