Ghost in the Shell SAC_2045 originates from the original comic “Ghost in the Shell THE GHOST IN THE SHELL” published by Masamune Shirow in 1989. Various works such as animation and Hollywood live-action movies are being developed.
Season 1 will be exclusively distributed worldwide on Netflix from April 2020. Season 2 will also be available exclusively on Netflix from May 23, 2022.
The sneakers sold this time can be roughly classified into two types: “Genesis” and “OG”. The sales period is the same, but there are differences in the number of sales, prices, characters used as motifs, sales intervals, etc. Payment is made in GMT tokens, and the price is 3,500 GMT (equivalent to 138,000 yen) for Genesis and 300 GMT (equivalent to 11,900 yen) for OG.

Japan is an important market
After its release, the STEPN app quickly became popular in Japan. The Stepn team sees Japan as an important market.
In April 2022, we will hold an IGO (Initial Game Offering) jointly with the major Japanese sports brand ASICS. The co-branded NFT sneakers were a great success, attracting a large number of participants as soon as the lottery recruitment started on “Binance NFT”.

In August of the same year, it announced that it had signed a memorandum of understanding with LINE Xenesis Corporation. At the time, Yawn Rong, co-founder of STEPN’s operator Find Satoshi Lab, said:
Japan, which is one of LINE’s largest consumer markets with approximately 92 million users, is also one of the most important markets for STEPN.
We would like to continue our efforts and provide Japanese users with more opportunities to enjoy the world of WEB3.
