Self Protocol utilizes zero-knowledge proofs to provide Sybil-resistant identity verification, ensuring privacy-preserving token distributions and user interactions.
Self Protocol is an identity verification system that leverages zero-knowledge proofs to enable Sybil-resistant token distributions and user authentication without compromising personal data. By validating user attributes such as age or location through passport verification, Self Protocol ensures that decentralized applications can authenticate real users while maintaining privacy.
By integrating Self Protocol, projects can ensure fair and secure token distributions and user interactions without accessing or storing sensitive personal information. This enhances trust and compliance within the decentralized ecosystem while preserving user privacy.
In February 2025, Self Labs launched Self Protocol after acquiring OpenPassport, combining expertise in zero-knowledge technology and identity solutions to scale privacy-preserving identity verification on-chain.
As of its launch, Self Protocol's components, Self Pass and Self Connect, have over seven million activated users worldwide, demonstrating its scalability and global adoption.
