Making Fitness Accountable Using Crypto I Marbius (Moonwalk Fitness)

Unlayered - A podcast by Sal Qadir and Dave Apsimon

Categories:

This week, Dave and Zen Llama talk to Marbius, head of product at Moonwalk Fitness to discuss the most hyped game on Solana at the moment, Moonwalk. The game leverages crypto payments to enforce accountability into users' exercise routines, by introducing global mini games where you pay to play, and have the opportunity to earn money should you succeed in the challenge (and others fail)! Its a simple yet brilliant concept which crypto payments help to unlock, and which could help further legitimize the space should it reach critical mass from a non crypto-native audience. - - Time Stamps (00:00) Introduction (02:26) The Origins of Moonwalk (05:12) Promoting Accountability with Personal Contracts (12:46) Using Steps as a Baseline Metric (14:49) Designing for Trust Between Participants (18:23) Last Man Standing?
