Stokn is patched You’ve probably seen the news this week: serious security bugs in Next.js, Node.js and some image libraries, affecting a lot of sites across crypto and tech. We’ve already updated our whole stack to the fixed versions. Website, server, everything. Nothing changes for you: wallets, catches and XP are all as they were, and the game is running normally. Keep walking

Stokn turns discovering assets into a game. Instead of staring at charts, people walk outside and catch real assets on the street: stocks, and tokens from projects in the Stonk ecosystem. Shoutout to @KnotsOnStonk , the first project on Stonk to join us. Their token already drops on the map, and walkers are catching it every day. To every project on @LaunchOnSF reach out to us. Send a donation of your token, and we redistribute 100% of it to the Stonk community as drops on the map. Your holders and new people discover your project on a walk, not on a chart. We built Stokn to last, whatever the price does. The launch volume came and went, and we’ve been paying out stocks for over 3 weeks since. People are still walking and catching every day. Now imagine what a little support from the whole Stonk community could do. More projects, more drops, more people outside having fun with this ecosystem. Tag your favourite Stonk project below so they see this. Who should be next on the map?

From now on, every new partner gets their own country on the Stokn map. Your logo and colours cover the whole country, and while your drops are active -- it glows, so every walker sees your project. We have over 6,000 walkers. Not a bad way to promote your project

airdrops go to whoever owns the most wallets. our drops go to whoever owns a pair of shoes. we like our odds.

picture it. you're late, it's raining, the bus didn't come. there's tesla lying 200 m up the road. suddenly you don't mind walking.

Our devs tried to learn Chinese last night. They got as far as 你好 and took a nap. So here’s the deal: bring your friends to Stokn, and we’ll finish the job. More Chinese walkers = Stokn in 中文.

we don't post roadmaps. we post what shipped. open the app. it changed again this week.

your trainer charges you to walk on a machine that goes nowhere. we put real stock on the street and let you walk to it for free. one of us has the better business model.

seven days, seven updates. done. what changed: a walk used to end when you caught your drop. now it levels you up, there are boxes on the way, and the spot you caught on can be yours. what didn’t: drops still come from trading fees. more volume, more drops.

update: map boxes can now be grabbed from about 100 m away, so boxes in odd spots are easy to reach. we also fixed a bug that wrongly blocked some players’ walking XP today.

21 days since launch. not one day without an update. give us volume. we give you drops, everywhere in the world.

day 5 of 7. partner territories. a partner token can now hold a country, or a city, on the map. for a week. walk inside holding $5 of that token and your xp doubles. its bonus drops come round more often there too. everyone sees whose ground it is.

day 4 of 7. clans. walking alone was fine. now you can walk with a team. start a clan for 20,000 xp, or join one. every cell your members claim counts for the clan. the clan with the most of a city rules it. double xp there for a week. pick your people.

day 3 of 7. territory. catch a drop. leave a comment where you caught it. that bit of the map is yours. three spots within a km, and the ground between them is yours too. it lasts 14 days. unless someone walks there more than you.

a billion people downloaded a game to walk after cartoon animals worth nothing. they didn’t stay for the animals. they stayed because it was a proper game. ours pays in real stock. this week it’s becoming a proper game too.

day 2 of 7. the xp shop. first you earn it. now you can spend it. looks and avatars. a streak shield, for the day you don’t walk. and 8,000 xp gets you a $0.50 stock drop, placed near you. once a week. your level stays where it is.

the android app now looks like the web: new ui on every screen, every catch you ever made, your own feed. - get it on our website. some of you are watching the candles. we're watching the commits. we're not worried about any short term swings, low or high.
