Crypto asset exchange OKJ has announced that it will begin offering STEPN’s governance token, GMT, starting at 17:00 on April 20, 2026. The supported services will include the exchange, brokerage, recurring investment, and deposits/withdrawals, with Solana and Polygon as the supported networks. As of April 10, 2026, this marks the first domestic listing of GMT in Japan.
With this addition, the total number of crypto assets available on OKJ will reach 51. Amid ongoing expansion of listed tokens among domestic exchanges, GMT—representing the Move-to-Earn sector—joins the lineup as a notable new asset.
In the broader crypto market, interest remains strong not only in speculative assets but also in tokens tied to real-world use cases such as gaming, fitness, and community engagement.
The listing of GMT is therefore drawing attention as a move that broadens access for domestic users to utility-driven tokens.
GMT serves as the governance token for the fitness app STEPN. Positioned as a “Move-to-Earn” application, STEPN allows users to earn tokens and NFT rewards by engaging in physical activities such as walking or running outdoors using sneaker NFTs.
Its key feature lies in linking everyday exercise habits with the acquisition of digital assets, going beyond a simple gaming experience.
OKJ has previously expanded its token offerings while also rolling out campaigns and collaborations with various projects. The addition of GMT can be seen as part of its broader strategy to diversify supported assets.
In Japan’s crypto market, exchanges are increasingly differentiated by how effectively they can incorporate in-demand tokens while maintaining regulatory compliance. The addition of GMT signals OKJ’s intent to capture growing demand in the gaming and lifestyle segments of the crypto space.
