The World Health Organization estimates physical inactivity causes 5.3 million deaths a year worldwide [Lee, 2012]1. Which is almost 10% of all deaths. Making «Low fitness» the strongest predictor of death [Blair, 2005].
What if we could improve our health habits by investing in ourselves in a fun and challenging way? Meet Florio.



What is Florio

Florio is a platform that motivates people to move, exercise, set and achieve their goals. Florio stimulates living a healthier life by combining exercise with gamified competition and (financial) reward, supported by a social network.
Florio allows users to track their health activities, set goals for themselves, challenge and compete with family and friends. These goals can be food and exercise related.
The Florio platform will be supported by an extensive range of e-commerce services which the users can benefit from. At the core of the Florio ecosystem is the Florio token (FLR), a digital currency which is used as a reward for challenges and as the currency for the e-commerce within the platform.



Our Vision

Florio’s vision is to encourage healthy living and to provide as many tools to support this.

We Challenge.
Competition, gamification and reward are great motivators to keep you going. Research shows that a money incentive is most productive in moving people. Florio allows users to create cryptocurrency based challenges and get rewarded! Challenge friends and family or create an open challenge that can be joined by everyone.

We Win
We keep track of everything. We use advanced data tracking mechanisms to keep track of your goals, compare achievements, check what actually is healthy for you or check how other people are doing. We analyse everything and visualize it in a way that it is actionable for everybody. All data is safely stored within our decentralized storage. Initially Florio will track activities like steps, distance and calories burnt, but users can also view regional leaderboards so they can see how they measure up against their peers, and follow their overall progress.

The best part is, you don’t even have to do anything. Just connect your tracker/wearable and all the data automatically translates into usable advice. After the challenge the reward goes to the winner of the challenge which is determined by the platform.

We Celebrate
The community is the core of the platform. It’s the place where you can find tips and information on the one hand, but even more important, you can also find support, and share your victories with families and friends. Having a supportive community can keep you motivated, push you to work out harder, and encourage you to stay committed to your health goals. Everybody is here to help you achieve your goals. We invite you to connect with other health improvers, friends & family and all types of other health specialists.


Market

According to PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC)’s annual health research report, the market for health tracking applications is growing exponentially. Fitness trackers have been around for several years. Due to improved technology the value the user is getting has improved abundantly. While
 in 2013, 16 percent of consumers said they had at least one health app on their device, in 2015, that number rose to 32 percent and now the number is 51 percent. This continually growing market is expected to reach $31 billion in revenue by 2020, according to Research2Guidance (consulting company for digital health industry), thanks to 2.6 billion health app downloads and more than 550 million active users.

The market will grow even more as soon as the wearables will be more accessible in terms of costs, but even more in terms of acceptability.

Token Allocation

With the distribution of the tokens Florio allows the community to participate in the platform and create community involvement and support. In turn this will help shape and steer the platform and will produce a product that is carried by a broad user base.

The tokens will be divided as follows:

20% of Florio (FLR) tokens to be created will be distributed to Florio’s founders, employees, ambassadors and early investors as an incentive to ensure long term alignment of interests and commitment to the tokens and their future value.

The remaining 80% of the Florio tokens will be divided as follows:

- 75% of the FLR tokens will be made available to the public through our token sale.
- 15% of the FLR tokens will be allocated to Florio for business development, market expansion and marketing activities.
- 10% of the FLR tokens will be allocated to support the e-commerce flow in the Florio network.

Any tokens that are not sold during the token sale will be reserved for future token sale periods.

The funding that is received in the token sale will go towards development of the Florio platform. The funds will be spent on research & development, hiring personnel, hardware and operational costs. Based on the amount of funding received there are targets defined that will be realized. The first target of 5.000 ETH is also the minimal investment amount needed for Florio. If that investment amount isn’t reached in the Initial Sale Period all investments will be refunded to the contributors.


Technical

The Florio Token will be implemented as a smart contract on the Ethereum Blockchain. The token will adhere to the ERC20 standard.

The portal will be hosted on decentralized servers to guarantee uptime and service availability.

The Florio tracker will be available for the major smartwatch and wearable platforms, with initial development starting with a tracker client for Samsung Gear and Apple Watch devices.

Can I reserve russian translation?

[Maxfieldr]

Would this be a blockchain connected to devices like a Fitbit?

We're getting our Twitter promo up to speed, make sure you follow us there ;-)

[nelfel]

Would this be a blockchain connected to devices like a Fitbit?

Yes, it's a blockchain based platform connected to as many fitness and activity trackers as possible, depending upon their api capabilities allowing us to tap into the health data. Initially we'll start with a few trackers but we'll extend supported trackers along the way.

[AshleyAshes]

Would like to reserve Dutch translation if you still need it

Hi team,

Love the idea of a fitness-challenging application on the blockchain with rewards!!

Any news when the app will be live? And can I be a Beta-Tester for it if it's still in a testing phase?

Love to hear from you guys, keep it up!

[TheBandit795]

Hi all,

How did you came up with the idea, What is your story?

Greetings

[Sepehr B]

Tell me why this isn’t a scam?

[seo-maestro]

The main idea of Florio is to motivate people for sport challenges and win money, isn't it?
When will be bounty start?

[2012]

Tell me why this isn’t a scam?

First you tell us what is your concern about this project and what thing make you ask this question. While this is blockchain based health platform and coming with proper way for their project than it's nothing wrong with this attempt.

[Cryptoanalist]

If I challenge a friend of mine and the challenge is to run 21 miles, the first one that achieves that will win the money, but how will the app know that I didn't use a bicycle ?

Any more celebs supporting your project?

Any more celebs supporting your project?

We have spoken with some big names within the sport scene, we still have talks with sporters from the boxing / soccer / kickboxing scene ),
new ambassadors will be announced on our website / slack, and when released within the Florio app. Having that said getting support from sporters is not our main goal. We are building a health platform
the current ambassadors that endorse Florio, all have a real interest into helping people living a healthier life / getting the message out there.

The Florio preview app will be released next week, it is waiting for approval from the Apple Appstore, Android is already approved though we want the release them simultaneously.  We want to give all users a equal chance at receiving the Free Florio tokens, that we will give away at launch of the preview app. Having that said, the preview app only contains information about the ICO, and information about the Florio platform. It will not contain any of the functionality described within the white-paper. The creation of the Florio App wil start when our ICO succeeded. Please refer to the whitepaper (roadmap) for exact dates.

You can apply for beta testing @ https://join-slack.florio.io/

I think it's great to have some support of great sport athletes. Thats means they support and believe in your project. I can't wait for the launch
