# FitByte

FitByte was a health and fitness protocol built on Solana that proposed a workout-to-earn model combined with sovereign health data ownership and a marketplace for users to monetize their health data with researchers and clinical trial operators. The project raised through MetaDAO's Unruggable ICO platform (Futardio) but failed to reach its funding target.
