# FitByte
|
|
|
|
Health and fitness protocol on Solana that proposed workout-to-earn mechanics combined with user-owned health data monetization. Launched through MetaDAO's futarchy-governed ICO platform seeking $500K but attracted only $23 in commitments before entering refund status after one day.
|
|
|
|
The project positioned itself as solving both the sustainability problem of move-to-earn protocols (by grounding rewards in verifiable physical activity) and the health data exploitation problem (by giving users sovereign ownership and monetization rights over their biometric data).
