Trend

Trend introduces a decentralized social layer for fitness apps, allowing users to verify their workout achievements through on-chain attestations. Powered by Sign Protocol, users can create verifiable proof of completed workouts, such as running or cycling with their peers. By recording these activities on-chain, Trend enables composability with other decentralized systems, like reputation protocols, allowing users to build a verified fitness track record that transcends individual platforms. This decentralized approach adds trust and flexibility to fitness data, enabling a richer social experience for users while maintaining privacy and control over their information.

There are many Web2 fitness apps, like Nike Run Club, Strava, and Hevy, which have built-in social features to track workouts and engage users through competition and collaboration. However, these apps operate on centralized databases, limiting composability and user control over their data.

Trend bridges this gap by providing a decentralized social layer. Using Sign Protocol, users can verify their fitness activities on-chain. This composable data can integrate with reputation systems, allowing for broader, cross-platform recognition of fitness achievements, enhancing both social interaction and user ownership.

Trend leverages Sign Protocol to power its attestation layer, enabling decentralized verification of fitness activities. Attestations are stored on-chain, ensuring the data is immutable and composable with other protocols, such as decentralized reputation systems. Smart contracts, written in Solidity, handle the attestation issuance and verification process. By using open standards, Trend enables fitness apps to easily integrate this decentralized social layer, while ensuring data privacy, scalability, and interoperability with Web3 ecosystems.
