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?
@HPbasketball Finch was unbearable the entire series. Actually just talking out of his ass every chance he got. It’s still fuck the Twolves, I’m cheering for the Spurs the rest of the way
@PaulTweetsRIP It’ll get the most press this way. Now it’s turned into an actual football storyline since Vrabel is missing day 3 and sports media HAS to talk about it now. Couldn’t be better timing, won’t get swept under the rug now
