How to use DIDs to verify users on-chain in Web3

Verifiable Credentials are stored and managed off-chain. So, to accelerate the adoptions of Decentralized Identity even more, Altme has developed a way for you to prove things about yourself directly on your favorite blockchain.

This is a way for you to prove certain things about yourself directly onchain.

After getting your verifiable credentials in Altme to prove your age, liveness (personhood) or DeFi compliance for example, you can mint a non-transferable NFT / SBT on your favorite blockchain address to prove a binary information about you on-chain. 

Privacy-focused : This NFT/SBT doesnโ€™t disclose any of your personal details. It just shows one specific binary information about you. For instance, it can show that you're a human or an adult, or that you meet certain rules (like KYC/AML), all without sharing / disclosing any private information about you. 

Example of use cases : You can use this feature when you want to access certain applications that need to verify something about you. The app/dApp can quickly check this token on the blockchain to see if you meet their requirements, like being a real person or of legal age, or DeFi compliant.

Here is how you can mint a DeFi regulation compliant NFT ๐Ÿ‘‡ 

1. Download the Altme Wallet 
2. Claim your Verifiable ID credential and follow the KYC verification
3. Claim your DeFi compliant verifiable credential
3. Go to the Altme's NFT minting page, pair your Altme wallet  and mint your DeFi compliant NFT / SBT.

Post NFT minting, Web3 Apps can instantly check users' DeFi compliance on-chain, ensuring compliance with diverse regulations, such as KYC or Anti-Money Laundering laws (AML). Meanwhile, users' personal data remains off-chain at all times.

In short, Altme is making it easy and free for Web3 users to get verified and prove things about themselves, on-chain or off-chain, all while keeping their data secure in their Altme wallet.

Making Web3 compliance easy for Web3 dApps

By combining self-sovereign identity (SSI / DIDs) with NFTs in an easy-to-use wallet, Altme lets users handle Web3 regulations while keeping their data private and secure : Anyone can create a special kind of digital token (a non-transferable NFT) that shows if certain criteria are met or not. And with the "Add a decentralized identity (DID) to your favorite wallet" feature, you can do this without even needing to import your secret key / passphrase into Altme.

The future of Decentralized Identity verification and the EUDI wallet ๐Ÿ‡ช๐Ÿ‡บ

Decentralized identity verification will not be limited to the Web3 world. Indeed, by giving users ownership and control over their own data, decentralized identity verification can make the internet a more secure and privacy-preserving place.

This is why Altme's vision is fully aligned with the future of Self-Sovereign Identity in Europe, which will be realized by the upcoming adoption of the European Digital Identity Wallet (EUDI Wallet). The EUDI Wallet, which is based on the eIDAS 2.0 regulation and the ARF technical framework, will give European citizens even better control over their data and improve online trust in identity verification.

By 2025, all EU member states will need to provide a EUDI wallet to their citizens to give them access to the benefits of Decentralized Identity (DIDs) for data ownership, privacy and data verifiability purposes in the European Union. 

๐Ÿ‘‰ Join us in building a a more secure and trustworthy Web3 ecosystem.

To conclude, this listing on Moralis signifies another key milestone in our journey. We're passionate about building the future of decentralized identity, and being featured on the Moralis Web3 Wiki fuels our commitment to innovation and user empowerment.
