This month the cryptocurrency market has seen a downturn with Bitcoin falling by -6.5%, followed by Ethereum at -5.5% and NEAR, the blockchain where SWEAT is built on, backtracking by a staggering -34.6%.
Sweat Economy has also been affected by the bear market losing -32.1% of its value, however it still remains the second move-to-earn token by market cap, behind STEPN (GMT) who has seen a decline of -29.1% over the last 30 days.
Even though token price is not the main driver behind Sweat Economy's development, investors and holders alike are eager to know what's to come for Sweat Economy and whether this can turn things around for its token price.
The following features were announced or discussed during Twitter Spaces, the Sweat Economy Discord or AMAs within the month of June.
Recent announcements

Magic Keys is in the final stages of testing, the team responsible for Redeemable Rewards is in the final stages of implementing them into the wallet and according to Michael Brink, Head of Product of Sweat Economy, step-based jars are "wrapped up from an on-chain perspective". These three features have the most chances of making an appearance in the Sweat Wallet app in the coming weeks.
