Sweatemple is a Web3 lifestyle app with social & game elements. Building a new wave of Web3 fitness.
A brief introduction to SWEATEMPLE
*SWEATEMPLE is a blockchain-based active lifestyle metaverse where users create, compete, and motivate the community through various fitness challenges. SWEATEMPLE aims to recognize what others fail to see, all the hard work and effort we exert on improving ourselves behind closed doors. Create personalized, achievable goals while earning handsome NFT rewards for your sweat.
*Abby is SWEATEMPLE’s chief marketing officer. With over eight years of marketing and PR experience, a former fashion and fitness influencer, as well as participating in high-end luxury brand and artist collaborations, Abby oversees all marketing campaigns and has built various partnerships and brand collaborations for the project.
First off, can you give a brief introduction to SWEATEMPLE?
SWEATEMPLE is a Web3 sweat-and-earn & create-and-earn blockchain-backed fitness platform. It was created to recognize the actions and efforts we make behind closed doors. We want to reward people for pursuing wholesome and active lifestyles. Meanwhile, in addition to sweat-and-earn gameplay, SWEATEMPLE also has create-and-earn mechanics which encourages us to create motivational content and influence the community for even more rewards.
Our AI engine is called ALPACA. It understands the flow of your music and sychronizes with user-selected virtual 3D stages and avatars to present a show. It doesn’t matter if you’re a fitness pro or a newbie, everyone is capable of creating great content in SWEATEMPLE. It’s also worth mentioning that SWEATEMPLE is the first ever GameFi metaverse incorporating real-life workout equipment. That’s pretty much it for an overview before I really dive into it!
What’s the story behind SWEATEMPLE? What inspired the team to build it?
Web2 was incredible. It created tons of opportunities, advancements, and breakthroughs. Our team learned a lot from Web2 and took what many platforms are lacking in and applied them to SWEATEMPLE’s Web3 platform.
If you guys read our whitepaper already, you might already know that the first templum (game) open to the public is called Cyclum. This templum is powered by freebeat, a revolutionary indoor cycling brand.
freebeat’s fitness classes are amazing. All classes are lead by rockstar instructors, and have 3D special effects and curated music playlists. Each class’ performance is recorded with comprehensive metrics including your on-beat percentage, cadence, resistance, calories burned, and much more. Riders receive a score for each class they partake in, and use that score to compete within the community. This feature is very suitable for adapting into the Web3 game where every drop of sweat has its value. It’s a smooth transition software-wise, and we’re confident that the game is very fun to play and the tech is compatible.
Web3 will not only bring us closer as a community, but it will deepen our connections and understanding of ourselves. SWEATEMPLE encourages people to create their own content — not just follow an instructor’s. We hope to inspire people and help find the spark inside them.
What are your unique features and selling points compared to other play-and-earn fitness projects? Why should users be excited about SWEATEMPLE & how can users engage in sweat-and-earn?
As far as our unique features go — as I just mentioned, we do incorporate physical fitness equipment. Within Cyclum, ride a physical indoor exercise bike and earn NFT based rewards.
Our game machine, the Lit Bike by freebeat, is fully upgraded to be Web3 compatible. The Lit Bike is a top tier exercise bike outfitted with Web3 and sweat-and-earn capabilities. You need a Lit Bike to enter SWEATEMPLE due to its highly advanced sensors and built-in software.
Don’t worry though — the physical bike is complimentary with your Bike NFT.
No need to purchase it separately. If you’re already a freebeat Lit Bike user, it’s also easy to upgrade the software and join SWEATEMPLE. Many platforms have succeeded in creating online platforms with intrinsic rewards. We have pioneered the fusion of an offline and online hybrid platform. Create your own classes, compete with other players online, and actually feel yourself progressing and earning rewards while riding a physical cutting-edge exercise bike.
Can you explain in detail the sweat-and-earn play mechanism of SWEATEMPLE?
Players of SWEATEMPLE will ride their Lit Bike and sweat-and-earn in-game tokens. There are two SWEATEMPLE tokens that can be earned: $SWT and $BEAT.
Earn tokens in a variety of ways: earn crypto rewards while competing, training, and improving your mind and body in a fitness oasis. Real-life movements get converted into expansive gameplay and blockchain-backed earnings. Basically, you’ll earn rewards by simply riding and completing classes. Riding frequently, upgrading NFTs, and high scores will all increase your token earning efficiency. Tokens can then be used to upgrade NFTs, buy new NFTs, swap for other cryptos, or redeem them for accessories.
What are the recent developments in terms of the product? Are there any upcoming campaigns that you are focused on?
We are focusing on our 100k airdrop campaign, aiming to provide another method for users to join our game at a lower entry cost. The campaign requires users to collect Part Boxes, which contain Bike Parts at random. Simply collect all six Bike Parts to mint a Bike Aura NFT for free!
After we start distributing the Part Boxes, you can register on our website and log in to link your wallet and see how many Part Boxes you’ve received. Follow the steps to claim Part Boxes, and reveal them after the new version goes live.
What are your plans for the future, what should the community look out for? What can we expect from you guys in the future?
Moving forward, we have high hopes of collaborating with other metaverses. We aim to deepen the immersive side of SWEATEMPLE by adding aspects of other worlds. Incorporating fields such as fashion will allow for deeper player customization. SWEATEMPLE is, and always will be, content and sweat-driven. Our expansion into more sports and games is on the horizon.
We are considering venturing into running, skiing, and skateboarding. We’re not announcing anything now, but our sights are set on promoting fitness in a fun and supportive way. Our software is compatible with other hardware devices and platforms. You might find us on Oculus someday.
I think these answers will help our users a lot! What was the biggest challenge you ran into when you were building SWEATEMPLE?
The largest challenge we faced while building SWEATEMPLE was developing a model to incentivize and reward a large range of users. There are so many types of riders and athletes out there, it’s challenging to reward them all.
We exerted tons of time and energy into developing the AI system ALPACA, which adjusts and flows with each rider’s music and riding style. This way riders of all types will be engaged, and will be rewarded based on equal factors to ensure earning fairness. We want everyone to enjoy their time in SWEATEMPLE, not just the super high performers.
I am a crypto newbie. Can beginners use your platform? Or, is there a tutorial for beginners?
SWEATEMPLE is very rookie friendly. Check out our full tutorial here:
How to play：https://www.sweatemple.com/#/howtoplay
We also have a rookie guide on bike tablets and apps.
Earning in the game is important, but having fun while earning for many users is equally important. To what extent does SWEATEMPLE focus on the entertaining aspects of the game?What measures are in place to help make the game suitable for everyone, including non-crypto people?
As mentioned before — the first public game (Cyclum) is powered by freebeat, an indoor cycling company that’s already accumulated many non-crypto users who’re into fitness and music.
The riding games are pro-grade fitness classes that are led by well-known indoor cycling instructors with high-energy music and sophisticated choreography. It’s for sure a fun workout. On top of that, you’re now capable of earning crypto and NFTs while sweating.
Besides riding the pre-programmed classes, SWEATEMPLE’s AI engine also helps you create your own class based on your hand-picked playlists, stages, and avatar. Share your masterpiece with the community and earn on your creativity. It’s a revolutionary project that’s suitable for everyone.
Once we have received all six Bike Parts, can we redeem a Lit Bike and NFT for free?
Yes. After collecting all six different Bike parts, you can redeem a Bike NFT and a Lit Bike from freebeat. Mint your Bike NFT for free (plus the gas fee on our official website). You can follow the instructions to redeem your freebeat indoor bike on SWEATEMPLE’s website after the mint is successful.
If six Bike Parts = 1 NFT, then what happens if I collect less than six?
These boxes will not go to waste. You can wait until our public test begins and trade them on the Marketplace. Also, you can purchase the remaining Bike Parts you need on the Marketplace to obtain all six. None of your actions are wasted!
As an individual user, how can I contribute to the development of SWEATEMPLE? Do you have an ambassador program and what are their benefits?
Yes! We have an ambassador program that will provide you with many perks. Ambassadors pre-qualify to join our beta test for free, and will receive a freebeat Lit Bike (worth $1799). There’s also the chance to win the 100,000 USDC bounty! Including ecosystem awards, a Bike NFT, in-game NFT, double token earning, cash bonuses, and much more!
Check the requirements to become an Ambassador: 1. You are an NFT, Gamefi, move-to-earn OG, or holder of NFTs. (Include CryptoPunks, BAYC, MAYC, Azuki, Moonbird, Doodles, Murakami, Flowers, Invisible Friends, VeeFriends, Cool Cats, Meebits, Doodles, Okay Bears, mfers, 4 rare sneakers (Stepn), 1 Epic sneaker holder (Stepn), etc.)
You are an NFT, GameFi, Web3, or fitness influencer on Twitter, YouTube, Instagram, or TikTok. Must have at least 50K total followers, and have an active social media presence.
You are a blockchain community influencer, TG, or DC, and have at least 5K community members and are highly active.
You have 2+ years of programming experience.
You are a game designer.
Online games are very difficult to win. Many people are afraid to play games due to the threat of losing money. What makes this platform different and what is the real chance of winning if I am not a professional player?
No one is losing in Sweatemple. The effort you’re putting in is your sweat, which is good for your health, mind, and environment.
Non-professional riders won’t be losing money — they just may earn a bit less than a pro. We always reward players based on effort. As long as you get on the bike and start pedaling, we start counting.
Besides our sweat-and-earn mechanism, we also provide a create-and-earn opportunity. If you have good taste in music, or your class is vibing just right, you also earn. Upgrading in-game NFTs gives you the chance for higher earning, but you don’t necessarily need to invest in that to start earning. It’s a personalized game and all up to you.
Questions from the audience:
Will this project have physical activities around the world?
We exercise on a physical machine and the content is on the screen. Workout and join a community in a virtual world.
I see that Sweatemple has game modes like PVE and PVP. What is the difference between these modes? Can I get rewards in all of them? What are the different ways to generate income through Sweatemple? Do you plan to integrate tournaments or events in the future?
Great question! Basically, you can ride by yourself, or you can also challenge your friends and other users in the same class for even more rewards. In addition, we also have tournaments planned — ranking players based on Total Score, % OnBeat, or other challenges.
Check out more on https://sweatemple.gitbook.io/sweatemple-white-paper/cyclum-powered-by-freebeat/ride-and-earn-in-game-elements/game-modes
Apart from having a strong team, VCs play a key role in expediting the success of a project. Can you tell us some of your important backers or VCs?
So far we are backed by Sky9 Capital, Miranda Capital backed by Bybit, Smrti lab, and a key person in the helium ecosystem.
What is your project roadmap? Will we see things that make a difference in other projects in the future? Can you tell us about your plans?
Here is our roadmap. We’re now in 2022 Q3.
Regarding SWEATEMPLE NFTs, can you explain further about the utilities of these NFTs on your platform? Are they meant to be held as collectibles or will they have additional benefits? Also, will you have your own marketplace to buy and sell SWEATEMPLE NFTs?
Yes, we will have a Marketplace — it’s currently under development. As for NFTs — each Bike NFT has its own attributes, which affect your earning efficiency.
For example, a rare Bike NFT with high level attributes would get you a higher score for the same amount of riding time. In addition, your own effort and performance also affect your score.
Right now, Lit Bikes are available in black, pink, white, and beige. The in-game NFTs are far more customizable.
