# FitByte

FitByte was a health and fitness protocol on Solana that attempted to combine workout-to-earn mechanics with health data sovereignty and a marketplace for selling user health data to researchers. The project raised through MetaDAO's Futardio platform but failed to attract meaningful capital, closing with only $23 committed against a $500,000 target.

## Timeline
- **2026-02-26** — Launched fundraise on Futardio targeting $500,000 for health data sovereignty protocol
- **2026-02-27** — Fundraise closed in refunding status with only $23 committed (0.0046% of target)

## Relationship to KB
- [[futardio]] — launch platform
- [[MetaDAO]] — parent organization providing unruggable ICO infrastructure

FitByte represents a failed attempt to apply futarchy-governed fundraising to the health data market. The project's value proposition combined four elements: workout-to-earn token rewards, user-owned health data, paid data sharing for clinical research, and broader health ecosystem integration. Despite positioning itself as addressing a "hundreds of billions" dollar health data market and choosing MetaDAO's structure for alignment with data sovereignty principles, the project failed to attract investor interest.
