The month kicked off with plenty of laughs during the STEPN x Rabbids Prank War. The mischievous Rabbids turned the STEPN offices upside down with their signature chaos, but the community wasted no time fighting back. Using the #STEPNxRabbids hashtag, players flooded the timeline with creative pranks, memes, and content. To reward the best entries, special GGBoxes were dropped, packed with premium prizes including 100 Rabbids co-branded Genesis Sneakers, alongside upgraded rewards such as 1,000 USDT, 100k GMT, and $50 XAUT. In the end, the community held its ground and came out on top. Well played!
A major ecosystem milestone followed with GMT becoming available on OKJ Exchange, OKX’s Japanese branch. This listing marks an important step in strengthening FSL’s presence in Japan. To support the launch, we introduced a Learn & Earn campaign where participants could complete simple quizzes to earn GMT and enter for a chance to win exclusive OKJ-branded STEPN Sneakers on the Solana chain. This move makes it easier for users in the region to get involved while continuing to build stronger connections with the Japanese community.
On the competitive front, Marathon Season 2 is now well underway. This round leans heavily into team-based consistency, requiring participants to burn at least 2 Energy daily, with no room for missed days. Teams of up to 20 members can compete together, and the Season Pass offers additional rewards for those fully committed. With the current round running until May 11th, there is still time for teams to form, stay consistent, and push toward the finish line.
Another key highlight was the launch of the Returnee Event, designed to bring inactive players back into the ecosystem. If you know someone who has been away from STEPN for three months or more, now is the perfect moment to bring them back. Successful returns unlock badges, exclusive backgrounds, Soulbound Solana Sneakers, and GMT rewards through the Veteran leaderboard. It is a strong reminder that the door is always open and that returning to movement comes with real rewards.
Looking ahead to May, momentum is building across multiple fronts. Marathon Season 2 will continue to ramp up as more teams find their rhythm and competition intensifies, especially for those chasing Season Pass rewards. Community initiatives like the Returnee Event are also expected to grow, bringing both new and familiar faces back into the ecosystem.
