Radix is joining the idOS Consortium, a decentralized identity network designed for storing and managing access to decentralized identities. Already serving thousands of verified users, the idOS network was created collaboratively by several infrastructure partners and leading ecosystems, including Fractal ID, NEAR, Gnosis, Aleph Zero, Kwil, and others.
Radix offers unique native solutions for Web3 identity, prioritizing both privacy and frictionless interoperability. By joining the idOS consortium, Radix is positioned to combine the unique features of idOS with the innovative Radix user experience to offer seamless issuance and retrieval of verified credentials for dApps on Radix.
Instalabs, creators of the Instapass AML/KYC service on the Radix Network, is also joining the idOS Consortium as an identity verification issuer.
Why is the idOS integration exciting?
idOS is a chain-agnostic decentralized storage and access management network for identity. It will allow AML/KYC providers like Fractal ID and Instalabs’ Instapass service to issue verified credentials for DeFi users into the idOS platform, where dApps can request access from users. These credentials can range from simple “proof of human” verification to meeting full compliance requirements for regulated financial applications.
By integrating with the Radix Network, idOS will offer a seamless way for Radix dApps to access verifiable credentials for users issued by providers like Fractal ID and Instapass. The idOS solution fits beautifully with Radix’s coming plans for a powerful VC/DID-based decentralized, verifiable credential system for the Radix Network and Radix Wallet. It will also give the idOS’ existing user base an automatic bridge to use their existing verified credentials on the Radix Network.
Instalabs’ Instapass service started by providing AML/KYC for its own Instabridge service, and idOS will offer a perfect outlet to provide more general AML/KYC services it plans to provide for dApps in the Radix ecosystem and beyond.
