Melbourne, 22 January 2018: Health and wellness app Lympo1 is set to fire the starting gun on its token pre-sale, as crypto analysts flag Lympo as one to watch.
Lympo has shot up the leaderboard on one of the most reputable ICO analysis sites, ICObench, which rates ICOs based on a consensus of expert opinion from around the world.
ICObench is unique in that only experts in the relevant fields can review the different projects and decide on the ratings.2
Lympo CEO and founder Ada Jonuse said:
Lympo is ranked amongst the top two in the sports sector and the top four in the health sector, which is giving us a high level of confidence in the lead up to our token pre-sale.
Lympo will be releasing 150 million Lympo tokens (LYM), in the pre-sale which ends on the 3rd of February, or when the hard cap is reached.
The Lympo token pre-sale is hot on the heels of the growing success of fitness app Sweatcoin3, which has seen its user base grow by 5 million and revenue rise by more than 260% in the last year4.
Ms. Jonuse said:
Lympo’s key difference is that our platform syncs with most apps and wearable devices to track health and wellness data, whereas Sweatcoin uses data from its own custom app.
The Lympo app is a digital health and wellness wallet that tracks workout data via smartphones and wearables, rewarding users with Lympo tokens when they hit their fitness and mindfulness targets. Tokens awarded can be used to purchase health products and services.
Ms. Jonuse said:
We are already in talks with an insurtech company that’s backing our technology as a way for health insurers to reward healthy lifestyles, in a similar way to car insurers that offer no claim bonuses for good driving.
The Lympo tokens earned for being healthy can be sold, transferred or used to buy more goods and services within the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Ms. Jonuse said:
We like to think of Lympo as the Bitcoin of fitness. We are putting burpees on the Blockchain and offering crypto for crunches.
The Lympo ecosystem is powered by user-generated and user-controlled data created through the app, capitalizing on the free flow of data curated through the hands of users instead of companies.
Ms. Jonuse said:
Everyday, people are sharing their personal data online through Facebook, Google and many other applications, and yet they aren’t rewarded for divulging this information. Lympo turns this model on its head, instead rewarding health and wellness users for sharing their personal data.
The unique Lympo model will also see some of the Lympo tokens reserved for the Blockchain for Sports Foundation, which supports sporting events and initiatives across the globe.
Earlier this month, Lympo announced poker player, politician and philanthropist Antanas Guoga (aka Tony G) as the head of its Blockchain for Sports Foundation.
The Lympo token pre-sale begins Tuesday, January 23, at 12:00 (GMT+1).

About the Lympo app
The Lympo app is a health and wellbeing wallet that rewards users with Lympo tokens (LYM) for sharing and achieving their health goals. It is part of a Lympo ecosystem for health and fitness data sharing including all industry players: personal trainers, gyms, sports and wellness businesses and health insurances.
By tracking fitness and wellness data on smartphones and wearables, Lympo aims to build healthy lifestyles and grow the Lympo community. Tokens earned can be used to pay for fitness, wellness and other health-enhancing products and services.
When users sign up to the app, they will be able to aggregate and later monetize their health and sports data, allowing them to interact with health insurances, sports and wellness businesses and employers who want to encourage their staff to remain healthy.
About Lympo Blockchain for Sports Foundation
The aim of the Lympo Blockchain for Sports Foundation is to support sporting events and initiatives around the world while promoting the Lympo app and encouraging healthy lifestyles.
Some of the Lympo tokens will be reserved for the Sports Foundation, which will be overseen by a board made up of famous athletes, Lympo partners, and leaders in sports communities from various countries.
Lympo token holders owning a considerable amount of tokens will be invited to vote on funding proposals.
