Decentralized Identity

Decentralized Identity

Secure Your Digital Self

Decentralized Identity within the Pinnacle network provides individuals with complete control over their digital identities. Users can securely manage, update, and revoke their identities on their own terms, without relying on any central authority. This ensures that personal data is owned and protected by the user, eliminating risks of data breaches and giving users the autonomy they deserve.

Self-Owned

Built to prioritize user privacy by avoiding central authorities and data breaches.

Data Privacy

Reveal only the necessary identity data, keeping your personal information private.

Full Control

Users have total control over what identity information is shared and when.

Immutable Privacy

Blockchain ensures that identity data remains private and tamper-proof.

Full Control

Pinnacle’s Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) gives users complete control over their personal data, ensuring privacy and security by eliminating the need for central authorities.

Privacy by Design

Selective Disclosure in Pinnacle’s DID system allows users to share only necessary identity data, preserving privacy while verifying key information for decentralized applications.

Interoperability with Global Standards

Pinnacle’s DID framework is built on the W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) standard, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of blockchain networks and applications. Users can seamlessly integrate their decentralized identities with a broad spectrum of decentralized services.

Selective Disclosure in Action

The Selective Disclosure feature within Altica’s DID system allows users to control which aspects of their identity are revealed in any given interaction. Instead of exposing full personal details, users can selectively share credentials, such as age, location, or professional status, without compromising privacy. This feature fosters trust while ensuring that data privacy remains a core principle of blockchain-based interactions.

The on-chain reputation system leverages transparent, verifiable data to assign reputation scores to users. This data is derived from user behavior, interactions, and contributions to the ecosystem, and it directly influences decision-making processes in decentralized governance models. The system ensures that governance decisions are based on merit and historical performance, enhancing fairness and trust.

Selective disclosure allows users to share only the information necessary for a specific interaction, enhancing privacy while maintaining trust. For example, users can prove their age or residency without revealing their full identity. This feature is crucial for applications such as decentralized finance (DeFi), social networks, and regulatory compliance, as it minimizes the amount of personal data exposed.

Decentralized identity systems allow users to issue and revoke credentials in real time. If a credential is no longer valid (e.g., expired certifications, updated qualifications), users can revoke or update it without requiring centralized authorities. Blockchain’s immutable nature ensures that these actions are transparent and securely recorded, preventing unauthorized access to outdated information. Each identity in Altica is represented as a Merkleized commitment of verifiable credentials, processed via zero-knowledge virtual machines (zkVMs), enabling trustless selective disclosure and revocation.

Altica’s identity framework prevents Sybil attacks through a combination of unique zk-identity nullifiers, cryptographic proof-of-uniqueness enforced through zero-knowledge circuits, and an on-chain verifiable reputation system that anchors user behavior to decentralized governance mechanisms, ensuring that each identity remains singular, accountable, and resistant to duplication or forgery.
