#STEPN & #STEPNGO December Townhall Recap 🎉
Last Townhall of the year already! December moved as fast as a Lambo, between long-term ecosystem moves, the Legendary release, and a top-tier collaboration, it was a pretty special one ✨
Here’s what we covered (quite the list, right?):
🔹 Genesis Buyback & Burn
🔹 Legendary Sneakers
🔹 STEPN x @Lamborghini
🔹 Marathon Challenge & in-app events
🔹 A look back at 2025
🔹 Community Questions
Let’s go through it 👇
Genesis Buyback & Burn 🔥
We started with something that sets the tone for the long run:
🔹 We will now regularly buy Genesis Sneakers from the marketplace and burn them permanently
🔹 This begins in December and continues long term
🔹 The idea is to reinforce the foundation of the ecosystem in a steady, sustainable way
🔹 We’ll get regular public reports so everyone can follow along
We also got an early heads-up for next year:
🔹 GMT earnings will be halved on January 1, 2026, and then every two years after that
🔹 It’s meant to keep rewards healthy as the ecosystem grows
A clear, steady move toward long-term balance ⚖️
Legendary Sneakers 🧡
A milestone years in the making: Legendary Sneakers are officially live!
🔸 The very first batch is extremely limited: eight STEPN x Lamborghini Genesis Legendary Runners
🔸 That’s it for now (no Minting / Enhancement yet)
What’s next:
🔸 Additional Legendary batches will come, but slowly and intentionally
🔸 Minting and Enhancement will unlock later, once everything feels balanced
Wen Legendary? Now.
STEPN x @Lamborghini 🏎️
🔹 This was the “wow” moment of the month
🔹 Lamborghini partnered with us to launch 2 Genesis collections on STEPN and STEPN GO
We have two drops:
🔹 STEPN (Dec 8–10): 400 Genesis Sneakers, including the eight Legendary Genesis
🔹 STEPN GO (Dec 11–13): 100 Genesis Sneakers, including 10 Uncommon Genesis
And beyond the sneakers:
🔹 Holders get access to Fast ForWorld, Lamborghini’s own game
🔹 Each sneaker comes with a co-branded digital Lamborghini Urus SE, linked to your FSL ID and usable across multiple titles, including future racing games
Wen Lambo? Now.

2025 in Review 🎬
Before wrapping, the team looked back at the year, and it really highlighted how much shipped across both apps:
🔹 Big collaborations: @Argentina, @Pantone, @Ubisoft, @Lamborghini…
🔹 Major features: STEPN Leaderboards, STEPN GO Uncommon Sneakers, Marathon Challenge, new Badges, Legendary Sneakers…
🔹 A full calendar of in-app events, across STEPN and STEPN GO
2025 was about tightening focus, strengthening the foundation, and setting up the next chapter.
Community Questions ⁉️
Q: When Genesis Sneakers are bought back, are they burned entirely, meaning the shoes and their existing numbers are permanently removed?
A: The number gets recycled: it can be reused, or we may choose not to, depending on what makes sense for keeping the total supply low.
Q: What benefits or effects do Legendary Sneakers actually have in the app?
A: The main effect is reducing overall sneaker supply, especially at the Epic tier.
Q: Will we see mintable Legendary Sneakers in the app?
A: Yes, they will be mintable in the future, once the system is ready and balanced.
Q: When’s the next update for STEPN GO?
A: The team is currently focused on the new social features.
That wraps December, and the year 🎉
Here’s to 2026! (and yes, you’ll receive your #STEPNRecap in early January 😎)
