Lympo prides itself on partnering with unique and heroic athletes that forge their own path. No one embodies that more than Jean-Baptiste Alaize, who had one of his legs amputated at just three years old.

Of course, that didn’t stop Alaize from chasing his dreams. He will be joining the LYMPO athlete pool, and users can stake LMT tokens to mint NFTs. Alaize has turned his tragic childhood into an inspiring example for athletes, young and old, worldwide. He has overcome war, grief, and violence.
