[July 2022 MONTHLY REPORT] Development of Identicon Verification Protocol (July 1 -> July 31)

Project title: Identicon

Proposal: Identicon Verification Protocol

Project Summary

Identicon is a trustless protocol for identity verification in the NEAR network, focused on providing multiple signed verifications of a real world entity and binding it to one (or more) digital identities, and independent of the form these digital identities may take (NFT, DID, etc). It is not an identity vault or a repo for unique identity.

Is based on a set of decentralized and random selection of human nodes (citizens) which will produce the “on-site” verification of the solicited identity, proof of life or proof of existence.

Periods and Results

Summary:

This last month we completed our objectives for the project:

  • Finished App (Frontend),

  • Finished all API (Gateway) endpoints

  • Finished Verified Credential Contract

  • Finished Verifications/Validation Contract

  • Finished Documents site

The app is already delivered to Tesnet and to our production server under the domain identicon.network:

While there remains some minor bugs and improvements we can say that we have reached a Minimum Viable Product (MVP), and are ready to take Identicon to the next phase.

Next phase will be:

  • Make improvements and fix bugs

  • Create the Identicon DAO

  • Deploy to Mainnet

  • Create a community around the project

  • Secure funding so we can involve more people

  • Recruit and involve validators

  • Start validating real people.
