How do you prove someone is human?... with Terence Kwok
Today we discuss how emerging technology help help better verify someone is who they say they are. It's no easy task.
Humanity Protocol, founded by Terence Kwok, is a decentralized, privacy-first digital identity blockchain, which has launch of Humanity Foundation, an initiative to advance decentralized identity technology and foster global adoption of Proof of Humanity solutions. The Foundation will be led by its founding directors, Yat Siu, Chairman of Animoca Brands, Mario Nawfal, Founder of International Blockchain Consulting, and Yeewai Chong, a seasoned investment professional from Morgan Stanley and Ortus Capital.
Humanity Foundation will serve as the driving force behind Humanity Protocol’s ecosystem, with a mission to fund innovation, incentivize community growth, and explore transformative use cases for decentralized identity.
At the core of Humanity Protocol is its Proof of Humanity framework, which kickstarts identity verification with privacy-preserving biometrics to establish human uniqueness. This foundational layer provides a secure and sybil-resistant way to authenticate users while preserving their privacy.
Building on this biometric foundation, Humanity Protocol enables users to layer additional credentials—such as educational qualifications, employment history, and social reputation—onto their verified identity. This creates an extensible, decentralized, and open identity layer that empowers users to take ownership of their data and interact confidently across digital and physical domains.
“Biometrics provide the ideal starting point for building a secure, decentralized identity system,” said Yeewai Chong, interim CEO of Humanity Foundation. “By anchoring Proof of Humanity in biometric verification, we unlock a world of possibilities for integrating diverse human attributes into a single, privacy-first identity framework.”
