The APTOS Foundation has invested in Universal Health token to speed up the use of blockchain and artificial intelligence in decentralized healthcare solutions.
According to a press release that is shared with crypto.news, Aptos Foundation, a non-profit organization that focuses on supporting the development of the APTOS layer 1 Blockchain, has done a “non-made-up investment” as part of the continuous effort of APTOS to support real applications.
Universal Health token, or UHT, is a company behind the proof-of-health protocol, an initiative that combines AI-driven health training with blockchain.
The Web3 project introduces a gamified health care approach through its primary partner, GOQII, which offers rewards for users for healthy behavior. These rewards can be exchanged for digital services and health care products. Goqii was the first full health and fitness app that adds UHT rewards.
By combining behavioral sciences, blockchain and AI, UHT hopes to enable people to take control of their health data and encourage them to take on a healthier lifestyle through incentives.
Although the announcement has not specified the technical details of the integration, UHT CEO Agastya Samat confirmed in a remark to Crypto.news that Universal Health token will be launched on APTOS.
“With the scalable infrastructure of APTOS and the developer’s ecosystem, we are pioneering with a new era of health care, powered by user ownership data. From dynamic insurance to tokenized loyalty for healthy behavior, make this vision to bring this vision to life.

With this investment of the APTOS Foundation, UHT is planning to scales his infrastructure, expand global access and fast-track partnerships, especially because it deepens integration with Gamified Engagement tools and AI functions.
The protocol has already received support from various high-profile web3 players, including animoca brands, polygon companies and other digital health-oriented funds.
Last year UHT launched a quiz-driven game ‘Health Adventure of UHT’ on Telegram in collaboration with Goqii.
In related news, Airtos gets the headlines in traditional financial circles. On March 6, Asset Manager Bitwise submitted an aptos ETF to the US Securities and Exchange Commission. If approved, it would be the first fund that gives traditional investors direct exposure to APT, the native token of the APTOS blockchain.
