In my quest to lose some excess body fat in advance of summer by increasing my level of physical activity, I went on the hunt for some smart phone app's that would help enable me to to burn those extra calories per day and I soon came across SWEATCOIN. Firstly, it's not as the name suggests anything to do with crypto currencies. Instead sweatcoin apparently pays you to walk! Specifically as a sweatcoin app user you will earn 1 sweatcoin per 1000 steps taken outdoors, all of which is tracked and verified through your phones GPS.

Healthcare has to be Earned / Politics / Health and Fitness
By: Phill_Tomlinson
Healthcare. Should it be a right or should it be earned? Ask 99% of people and they will probably state it is a right for everyone within a developed nation. I'm the one percent. I believe healthcare needs to be earned. The crisis in healthcare within developed countries has not come about from the free market or a defunct laissez faire capitalist system. It has come about from years of Big Government. There is no crisis in the software and computer industry where costs are spiralling out of control with service quality in decline. The freedom of the human spirit and mind is the most powerful weapon to combat poverty. Abundant healthcare needs to be earned.

Then I got a beta unit and used it for the first time on my last birthday last year.
