Sweat Economy Brings Japanese Language Capabilities to Sweat Wallet
The move enables millions of native Japanese speakers to access the app seamlessly
LONDON, March 19, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Sweat Economy, the Web3 ecosystem on a mission to make the world more physically active, has launched a Japanese-language version of its Sweat Wallet mobile app. The move paves the way for millions of Japanese users to interact with the Sweat Economy ecosystem in their native tongue.
Japan has been one of the primary focus markets for Sweat Economy due to its strong and active fitness community. Sweat Wallet makes fitness fun and rewarding by allowing users to earn $SWEAT with their steps. Users can then trade $SWEAT for other mainstream crypto such as USDT, participate in prize draws, or transfer their earnings to other crypto platforms. Since launching in September 2022, Sweat Wallet has gained over 213,000 users in Japan, who have minted over 78 million $SWEAT and logged nearly 200 million steps.
Oleg Fomenko, Co-Founder of Sweat Economy said: “We’re thrilled to launch Sweat Wallet in native Japanese, in what is one of the largest fitness markets in the world. Japan has always been one of our primary focus markets. Our Japanese community members on Discord have been very active and passionate about our product development. We are super excited to launch a localized version of the app to help Japanese users navigate and experience the app without any language barrier. We aim to inspire a new wave of physical activity in the country and incentivize individuals to lead healthier lives, paving the way for the next billion users looking to participate in The Movement Economy.”
The Japanese version of Sweat Wallet is now available for download on iOS and Android. In addition to the Japanese launch, Sweat Economy has engineered a major breakthrough with NEAR Protocol’s Chain Abstraction technology—with Oleg Fomenko delivering a demo of the milestone at ETHDenver. It demonstrates that the Sweat Wallet will soon be able to allow its 15 million users to run transactions on chains other than NEAR, without the need for complex knowledge to operate on different chains. This development demonstrates Sweat Economy’s commitment to onboarding millions into both Web3 and The Movement Economy.
Oleg Fomenko, co-founder of Sweat Economy is available for interviews.
About Sweat Economy
Sweat Economy is a Web3 ecosystem on a mission to help the world be more physically active by incentivizing activity. It is powered by $SWEAT or Sweat Token, a crypto asset representing tokenized physical activity, minted by steps. The token is managed via the Sweat Wallet dApp, the non-custodial Web3 mobile wallet dApp for managing your $SWEAT and other crypto holdings. Sweat Wallet is a top 5 dApp globally, designed for the crypto-curious. Sweat Wallet is one of the world’s most popular Dapps, boasting over 3.7 million monthly unique active wallets on the platform. The Wallet works in tandem with the Sweatcoin app to accurately track users’ steps and distance and rewards them with $SWEAT that can be spent on fitness gear, athletic apparel, and other products. Sweat Wallet also fosters community and competition through its multiple gamified features, such as Sweat Hero—the dynamic NFT game based on your steps. With over 140M+ registered Sweatcoin users, and more than 10 million Sweat Token holders, Sweat Economy is facilitating one of the most significant onboardings in Web3 history.

QDOSE® Platform Partnership for Personalised Dosimetry in Radiopharmaceutical Therapy
MELBOURNE, Australia and DRESDEN, Germany, March 18, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Telix Pharmaceuticals Limited (ASX: TLX, Telix, the Company) today announces that it has entered into an agreement to commercially partner the QDOSE® dosimetry software platform with ABX-CRO Advanced Pharmaceutical Services Forschungsgesellschaft mbH (ABX-CRO), a full-service contract research organisation (CRO) based in Dresden, and its development partner, Stockholm-based Quantinm AB.
QDOSE® is a validated, versatile software platform that enables reliable estimation of patient-specific dosimetry for both therapeutic and diagnostic radiopharmaceuticals. Telix intends to integrate the QDOSE® platform into its therapeutic radiopharmaceutical programs and clinical collaborations to enable the development of personalised treatment regimens. Personalised radiopharmaceutical therapy administration based on individual patient dosimetry has the potential to improve clinical outcomes by optimising treatment response while reducing effects on normal healthy organs and optimising the use of isotope supply chains.
QDOSE® supports dosimetry calculations using planar imaging, tomographic imaging, single/multi time point imaging and hybrid combinations. QDOSE® incorporates additional tools for attenuation and background correction. The QDOSE® platform will be integrated with Telix’s artificial intelligence (AI) products as an accessible tool for clinicians and third-party commercial drug developers. QDOSE® has received 510(k) clearance from the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is Conformité Européenne (CE) marked for clinical use within the European Union (EU).
Dr Christian Behrenbruch, Managing Director and Group CEO of Telix said, “In nuclear medicine, dosimetry analysis is used to calculate the absorbed dose of radiation received by different parts of the body. Rapid, reliable and personalised dosimetry is becoming an increasingly important future direction of cancer care and regulatory authorities now expect to see dosimetry analysis. QDOSE® has an excellent performance track record and we are committed to positioning QDOSE® as a new industry standard in dosimetry analysis.”
The arms’ length up-front transaction consideration is non-material. Telix will pay undisclosed product royalties and fees on product sales.
