THE LYMPO PLATFORM

Below are detailed descriptions of the platform from their whitepaper:

1. LYPMO CORE

Main business logic will be implemented in this component. The component will contain all relevant rules and algorithms processing activities in the ecosystem. It will do data validation and will interact with blockchain to process contracts and issue some transactions, when needed.

1. LYMPO API

A collection of various programming functions and interfaces to make Lympo ecosystem accessible for the software development companies. The API will give sufficient flexibility, while respecting all security rules implemented in Lympo Core. Lympo will encourage third parties to create additional services in the ecosystem, which will be beneficial for system users and investors.

1. MAIN DATA STORE

The database where all system data will be stored. It will include user accounts, system data and detailed information about the smart contracts. The fitness data recorded by Lympo users will also be stored in this data storage. The elaborated security measures will be taken to protect the data, and it will only interact with
Lympo Core system, which will make sure that only authorized persons and processes can access relevant data.

1. LYMPO USER INTERFACE

Web portal and mobile applications developed by the Lympo team. The user interface will be the main entry point for the users to create and manage their Lympo accounts, propose different training programs and reward options, pay for the services, create smart contracts and monitor the balance of the Lympo tokens in
their accounts.

1. DATA ACCESS ENGINE

A separate component in the Lympo Core, developed exclusively to add extra
security checks for the data shared with the third parties. External developers will get access to the system via Lympo API, however the private data is a big concern and requires additional handling. Permissions to access the data can be given by the data owner only, and this component will perform validation of these permissions. In addition, the data access engine will audit every external call to the API, therefore every user will be able to see who has accessed their data. Moreover, the component
will do automatic monitoring of system behaviour, to analyse data usage patterns and alert system administrators on malicious behaviour.

LYM TOKENS

Team tokens will be locked for 24 months after the end of the token sale. Advisors’ tokens will
be vested in 12 months.
Lympo ecosystem empowerment tokens will be locked and released in 3 years, i.e. 1/3 tokens
made available in 2018; another 1/3 in 2019 and the rest 1/3 in 2020.

This is how the tokens will be used
