how it feels to join a steppa group and let your robot walk on the treadmill for 16 hours a day https://t.co/Y4t4I5gWUV

Update: the prize pool is now at $13k 🤯 This might be the first fitness app on earth where people panic harder missing their steps than missing the gym entirely lmao https://t.co/kGrGw3g7e4

Turns out twitter has a LOT of people interested in gambling on their step count because this just crashed their servers 😂

The developer just reached out and told me the app crashed because too many people signed up 🤣🤣 Prize pool is already at $15k now, i'm gonna win so much money from y'all lazy mfs lmaooo

Someone built a fitness app using the same psychological mechanics as gambling This might work better than every normal fitness app 😭😭 You bet money on whether you’ll hit 10,000 steps today If you fail, you lose your money If you succeed, you split the money from everyone who didn’t So disciplined people literally profit off lazy people Most fitness apps try motivating you with streaks and notifications This one motivates you with financial fear Imagine realizing at 11:52pm you still need 1,700 more steps or you lose $30 Entire friend groups would be outside walking laps around their neighborhood before midnight trying not to lose their steppa challenge It sounds stupid but this would probably motivate people better than any other fitness product Would you use this yourself?
