It collects data from wearables like Whoop, Oura, and Apple Watch, then provides users with personalised feedback on their sleep patterns.<br>&nbsp;</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Grateful to have incredible investors with us on this journey 🌙<br><br>Onwards to our next chapter: building the Intelligence Layer for the Wellness Economy - connecting AI agents, wearables, and wellness tools into personalised intelligence, built on your data.<br><br>You’re early 🌄 Come… <a href="https://t.co/hiF7Kxvxal">pic.twitter.com/hiF7Kxvxal</a></p>— Sleepagotchi 💤🦖 (@sleepagotchi) <a href="https://twitter.com/sleepagotchi/status/2056729140926070934?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">May 19, 2026</a></blockquote> <script async="" src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div><p><br>Sleepagotchi plans to roll out additional AI agents focused on wellness coaching and meal planning. The bigger idea here is letting people actually benefit from their own health data, rather than just handing it over to tech companies for free.<br><br>Prior to the pivot, Sleepagotchi already had 2 million total users on its Telegram Lite version, and the engagement numbers are impressive. According to the company, 78% of users open the app within 10 minutes of waking up. The platform generated over $100,000 in revenue during a recent three-week beta as well.<br>&nbsp;</p><h2>From Sleep Rewards to Health Intelligence</h2><p><br>When Sleepagotchi first launched, it was straightforward: track your sleep, earn $SLEEP tokens. It worked because it turned something passive into something interactive and rewarding.<br><br>Now the team is applying that same formula across wellness. Instead of just sleeping, users will be able to get AI-powered guidance on diet and exercise, which will all be tied together through their wearable data and the $SLEEP token.<br><br>The token itself is getting redesigned to support this wider ecosystem. Users will be able to spend $SLEEP on AI agent credits, subscription benefits, and gamified wellness features. It'll also work for partner campaigns and marketplace purchases.<br><br>In recent months, multiple projects within the crypto gaming space rolled out changes for their economies.&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/axie-infinity-release-baxs-combat-axs-sell-pressure">Axie Infinity released bAXS</a>, while&nbsp;<a href="https://funjible.games/news/ronin-bonded-token-bron">Ronin applied a similar bonded token strategy with bRON</a>. The industry's survivors aim to combat sell pressure and develop better reward models, which should also lead to more gameplay-focused changes.<br>&nbsp;</p><div class="raw-html-embed"><iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/6rhQ4Wx7OAY?si=3jkGxKPRLh8vgKiK" title="YouTube video player" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share" referrerpolicy="strict-origin-when-cross-origin" allowfullscreen=""></iframe></div>
