From the fitness earning models of 2022 (GMT/StepN) to the click-to-earn models of 2023 (on-chain traceability projects), and then to the click interaction earning wave of 2024 (NOT/Notcoin), the industry has been exploring new incentive mechanisms. Entering 2025, conversation-based earning (KAITO/Kaito) begins to emerge. Based on this development trajectory, 2026 may mark a true turning point — shifting from simple behavior incentives to rewards based on verifiable value. In other words, no longer just "atmosphere points," but a reward system truly based on provable results.

Haha, laughing to death. Predicting the turning point in 2026 again—this routine has been played out already.

Bro, it sounds like another wave of getting chopped up is coming. Who hasn't lost money in the StepN wave?
