Blockchain is unquestionably the technology of the future, as evidenced by numerous industries leveraging blockchain to improve and scale in the last decade. The finance industry has benefited greatly from this, with DeFi (Decentralized Finance) introducing new and limitless possibilities in the financial space. Blockchain technology has also been used in the gaming and art industries, among others. What distinguishes blockchain is its immutability and decentralization, as people begin to embrace blockchain for strong data privacy and total decentralization.
The fitness industry is one that has recently jumped on the blockchain bandwagon, prompted by the role that online fitness apps played in the COVID-19 pandemic. While there was an increase in fitness app usage during the pandemic, certain issues must be addressed and additional incentives must be implemented in order for the fitness industry to efficiently scale and evolve.
How Does Blockchain Come in?
Another significant issue that has slowed the progress of the health and fitness industry is the lack of incentives and zero appeal of the fitness apps that are currently available. Extra incentives must be provided to retain users, and blockchain technology can help by providing in-app gamification, digital assets as bonuses, and digitizing the user experience of online fitness apps.
A health and fitness company has taken steps to address these issues by utilizing blockchain technology to provide in-app gamification, loyalty bonuses, and an in-app digital currency that can be staked and earned as part of their referral and bonus system, as well as embracing decentralization to protect users' privacy.
