Sweat Economy to hold governance vote for 2 billion tokens.

Sweat Economy, the company behind the Sweatcoin and Sweat Wallet apps, is planning to launch a new governance vote in the wallet app later today. This vote will give the Sweat community the responsibility of deciding what should be done with the 2 billion Sweat tokens that are currently lying idle in inactive users’ accounts.

Token holders can now participate in the decision-making process through the principle of one man, one vote, which will democratize the token’s future. The question of what should be done with the tokens has been a long-standing issue, especially since no response was received after repeated prompts and reminders to users to activate their apps and claim their tokens.

It is important to note that the volume of tokens involved in this case makes the governance vote a crucial one. However, the project will ensure that the voices of all its community members and token holders are heard, regardless of the size of their holdings. This is because the Sweat Economy is committed to making the decision-making process community-centric.

In September of last year, Sweat Economy distributed about 4.7 billion of its Sweat tokens to 13.5 million of its Sweatcoin users at the time. This happened about two weeks before the Move-to-Earn project secured a crypto custody partnership deal with London-based decentralized digital asset management infrastructure Qredo. It turned out that a significant number of users did not activate their Wallet apps after the token generation and distribution.

• Instagram developing AI chatbot for more engaging chats.
• Twitter’s new CEO, Linda Yaccarino, started working earlier than expected.

As a result, up to 2 billion tokens were left unclaimed and locked up in a 24-month contract in inactive user accounts, representing approximately 13% of the total supply of the Sweat token.

Sweat Economy Governance: Vote For or Against?

The new governance vote requires at least 75,000 votes for the proposal to be either accepted or rejected. It is likely that the volume of votes will exceed 75,000, as the previous vote attracted way over 150,000 participants. The Sweat Economy is even more positive about this possibility considering the bulk of Sweat tokens involved.

The two options to be voted for or against are whether the 2 billion idle SWEAT tokens should be recovered and transferred back to the Sweat Treasury for potential future distribution or other uses that would also be decided via another round of votes, or whether the tokens should remain in the inactive users’ accounts.

Every token holder has a fair chance of making their vote count, and the polls will run for up to 7 days with the possibility of a 3-day extension depending on the influx of votes. So far, Sweat Economy has received feedback from holders indicating that the governance vote is a welcomed development.

On the one hand, the Sweat Economy is preparing for its launch in the United States this September. This will facilitate Sweat Wallet installation among US residents. At the same time, existing users of the Sweatcoin app will receive their SWEAT token allocations in direct proportion to their current Sweatcoin stake.
