Privacy-Preserving Identity

Leveraging Zero-Knowledge Proofs to enable verifiable identity without compromising user privacy.

Privacy-Preserving Identity

Overview

Identity is a cornerstone of the digital world, but current systems often require users to sacrifice their privacy. This research explores how Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) can be used to prove identity attributes (like age or citizenship) without revealing the underlying data.

Research Areas

  • ZK-KYC: Compliant but private Know-Your-Customer processes.
  • Selective Disclosure: Allowing users to share only necessary information.
  • Sybil Resistance: Using private identity to ensure “one human, one vote” in DAOs.

Current Progress

We are currently evaluating several ZK-proof libraries and designing the schema for anonymous credentials.
