Get Healthy on the Blockchain: Lympo ICO Review

The relatively new mobile health market has been growing immensely and in a big way. But, just like with any new product and market the full benefit of this ecosystem has yet to be realized. For consumers and businesses alike, there is a lack of cohesiveness and interconnectivity between the consumers, the companies and their data. Both parties miss out in the grand scheme of things without a real platform they both can flock to. Lympo has seen this and is attempting to alleviate this situation with a new mobile health system that rewards its users for getting healthier.

What is Lympo offering?

Health and sports tech is a massively growing industry with an expected market size nearing $250 billion by 2020. In 2016 mobile health app downloads topped 3 billion within mobile marketplaces. Lympo wants to add real functionalities and an actual community to this goliath of an industry.

The way things work currently within this realm is, knowingly or not, many phones are tracking a user’s health related data. Things like activity level, eating habits or even details like heart rate and blood pressure can be tracked and sold to companies without any benefit to the user at all.

To put it squarely, we are not the owners of our own valuable data under this system.

Lympo is combatting this via their platform that will combine benefits for all potential players within the health industry. Users will receive benefits from within the Lympo marketplace, Gyms and personal trainers will be able to attract new clients, and businesses will be able to directly aggregate the data collected to market personalized services towards willing and wanting users.

They plan on doing this through their specialized “LYM token” that will have real uses for all holders.

The LYM Token

Lympo’s token is what really make their plans stand out.

The tokens, first off, are earned fairly simply. Market players can set rewards for users who achieve certain goals or participate in certain activities. For instance, if a user runs a certain distance or joins up with a gym or meets certain goals a smart contract is activated that rewards the user with LYM tokens within their digital Lympo fitness wallet.

This is simple enough, and standard procedure for most startups within the crypto-space. However, there’s a couple things about the LYM token that are making it stand out.

The marketplace on their platform will host a large variety of rewards that can be exchanged for the tokens making it easier and cheaper than ever before for user’s to keep up on their fitness gear, food, and subscriptions. Lympo is dedicated to making their token a highly useful token that has benefits for the user in the real world. This thrust has also earned the attention of KuCoin: The crypto exchange announced on March 28, 2018 that they would list Lympo:

KuCoin and @Lympo_io LYM are running a joint promotion to celebrate the listing of LYM on KuCoin. We are offering 5 BTC giveaway. All you need to do is:

But, beyond this nice benefit is that Lympo is putting their money where their mouth is when it comes to creating a community involved around this platform. LYM token holders will also be given real stakes in the company. Lympo’s CEO Ada Jounuse recently announced:

“Lympo’s aim is a token with the real long term value, a real use case inspiring people to be healthier and mass market adoption independent from the entire crypto economy. Our mission is to grow Lympo to a powerful company and to conduct an IPO (initial public offering) in the future. In contrast to traditional businesses, we want our community to be a part of this journey. And that is why a decision was made by the team to offer a total of 20% of Lympo shares to our token holders.”

Lympo’s ideas are solid and they have great solid, and more importantly doable, ideas for how they want their platform to operate. Check out lympo.io for more info and to get on the cutting edge of the mobile health industry.

Altcoins are Going SegWit for Price Boost of a Lifetime

Little-known altcoin DigiByte is following Litecoin and Syscoin in making investors rich with impending SegWit activation.


DigiByte Celebrates Countdown To Ultimate Pump

Metrics highlighted by developers Saturday show the proportion of DigiByte miner support at 72.48% – inching past the 70% activation threshold.

6 more days to go till activation at this rate! Happy Easter everyone!” a Twitter post added.

Despite having barely made a name for itself prior to the announcement, DigiByte is currently 63rd in CoinMarketCap’s cryptocurrency listings, its price increasing 15% in the 24 hours to press time Sunday and having more than doubled since the beginning of April.

SegWit Spinning Gold Across The Board

The events continue an increasingly familiar pattern of behavior among altcoins. Both Litecoin and Syscoin have already benefitted from elevated interest, trading and publicity from SegWit activation ‘likelihood,’ with traders rejoicing after extended periods of flat prices.

Litecoin is currently trading at $10.76 per token, maintaining highs not seen since 2014 and dwarfing the many months it spent dormant at just under $4.

SysCoin’s story is almost identical. Having staged a modest increase in April 2016 following a 50% supply cut, prices remained at around $0.01 per token until SegWit activation announcements saw them treble to $0.03.

Reactions to the altcoin phenomenon have been mixed. While SegWit potentially provides a convenient method for get-rich-quick schemes, reflecting on bitcoin’s battle with the technology’s activation, BitFury CEO George Kikvazde was rueful.

“One can only imagine at what price level bitcoin would be now, if a sound, well-tested tech like segwit had been activated,” he mused last week as Litecoin’s success edged closer.

bitcoin & SegWit Still Unholy Matrimony

In further bitcoin news, major Chinese mining pool F2pool said on Friday in accordance with its poll results it would be implementing SegWit on both Litecoin and bitcoin “soon.”

The decision comes despite lead figure Wang Chun’s frequent criticism of bitcoin Core and preference for a user-activated soft fork (UASF).

Following the SegWit statement, Chun likened Core to Chairman Mao, with users similar to the Red Guard.
