AllianceBlock launches solution enabling users to prove their digital ID without compromising privacy

Published

4 years ago

on

AllianceBlock announced on November 9 the launch of its Trustless IDentity Verification (TIDV) solution on Mainnet. The initial integration will take place through the Fundrs platform with the aim of developing smooth pathways into decentralized finance (DeFi).

Trustless Identity Verification is an application built on blockchain technology that addresses the issue of securely exchanging verified data. To make this a reality, one group of users must first demonstrate their digital identification without compromising their privacy. 

The second group of users will be able to evaluate the participants with full faith in the authenticity of the data, which will assist in avoiding any regulatory issues. By only needing the Know Your Customer (KYC) procedure to take place once with TIDV integrated solutions, TIDV makes it easier for consumers to engage with goods that require compliance. 

Users may have peace of mind knowing that their personal information is held solely by themselves and the companies or organizations whose services or products they have requested access to. No single record of their data is kept by any other party, not even GBG (Global Identity Services) or AllianceBlock.

CEO and Co-Founder at AllianceBlock, Rachid Ajaja, said:

“Trustless IDentity Verification has the ability to revolutionize the way compliance is managed in DeFi and blockchain. It will give users complete control over their online identities and let them connect to different integrated dApps and revoke permissions if needed.”

Key features of TIDV

One of TIDV’s most appealing features is that it requires customers to go through the KYC procedure just once in order to create a verified identity that can be used for verification purposes with TIDV-integrated dApps and apps.

Most industry professionals predict that regulations pertaining to DeFi will soon be implemented, and retail investors are already acutely aware of the need to find a suitable compliance solution.

Users need to verify their identification with AllianceBlock’s identity verification partner, GBG, and link their crypto wallet once with TIDV.

Boris Huard, Managing Director, EMEA, at GBG, stated:

“GBG’s Know Your Customer (KYC) solutions help bridge the gap between traditional finance and decentralised finance. Our global end-to-end solutions are quick to deploy and ensure the identities of potential users are verified in seconds, creating a secure environment that meets compliance needs without sacrificing the user experience. 

Users protected from moment of onboarding

AllianceBlock’s integration into the platform guarantees that blockchain users are protected from the moment of onboarding, with no disruption to the user experience, by means of thorough and trustworthy KYC checks.

Startups may need KYC to comply with regulations, and prospective capital providers (funders) can undertake KYC on TIDV to participate in KYC-required fundraising rounds. Ultimately, TIDV’s integration with Fundrs allows for compliant fundraising rounds. dua Token, the first listing on Fundrs, will also utilize this new interface to conduct compliant fundraising rounds.

Future integrations include the DeFi Terminal, DEX, and Data Tunnel. Being able to undertake KYC once and apply the same verification across numerous solutions makes it easier for consumers to participate and interact compliantly across these solutions and reduces the number of submissions they must make.

Aptos launches Confidential APT with encrypted balances on mainnet

Aptos said Confidential APT is now live on mainnet, bringing opt-in encrypted balances to the network while keeping wallet addresses visible. The feature is positioned for compliant use cases including payroll, treasury and business-to-business settlement.https://twitter.com/Aptos/status/2084481961553445096

The Aptos account said transactions are verified with zero-knowledge proofs, allowing the network to confirm that transfers are valid without exposing the underlying amounts. The update is meant for users who want confidentiality for specific transfers rather than full anonymity across the network.

A separate governance page tied to the rollout shows the proposal as executed, matching Aptos’ public statement that the feature has been enabled on mainnet. The material linked from that page describes Confidential APT as part of Aptos’ on-chain privacy features.

How the feature is framed on Aptos

According to Aptos, Confidential APT is opt-in, so users can still use standard transparent transfers if they prefer. The company’s framing focuses on enterprise and institutional settings where transaction amounts may need to be hidden while counterparties remain identifiable.

The launch adds a privacy layer at the transaction level, but it does not by itself indicate broader usage or adoption. It does, however, give Aptos a live mainnet mechanism for hiding balances on selected transfers.

NEAR says Machine Payments Protocol now uses NEAR Intents for agent settlements

By

NEAR Protocol said the Machine Payments Protocol (MPP) from Stripe and Tempo now integrates with NEAR Intents, allowing agents on MPP to settle across more than 30 chains using NEAR infrastructure.

The update was shared by NEAR Protocol on X, where the team described the integration as live and pointed readers to public SDK and documentation for the payment method. The announcement frames NEAR Intents as part of the settlement layer for agent payments rather than as a standalone consumer product.

Settlement across multiple chains

According to the post, the integration gives any agent using MPP a way to settle payments across 30-plus chains. The announcement did not add further technical detail in the post itself, but it did direct users to the public documentation for the NEAR payment method.

MPP, or Machine Payments Protocol, is designed for programmatic payments between software agents and services. In this case, NEAR is presenting Intents as the mechanism that helps route those settlements across chains through its infrastructure.

The timing and scope of the change were stated by NEAR Protocol itself, which makes the integration the central confirmed development. The announcement did not include a broader rollout timeline, usage data or terms for availability beyond the public SDK and docs link.

What NEAR is highlighting

The key change is not a new token feature or a market-facing launch, but a payment-routing integration aimed at agent settlements. That places NEAR Intents inside an emerging category of machine-to-machine payment infrastructure, where the practical value depends on whether developers adopt it for real transactions.

For now, the confirmed claim is narrower: NEAR says MPP can now use its Intents system for cross-chain settlement, and the public documentation is available for developers who want to build around it.

NEAR AI says IronClaw 1.0 is now deployed as part of July shipments

By

NEAR Protocol said its July shipments included NEAR staking for NEAR AI compute going live and the launch of IronClaw 1.0 on mainnet, marking a new step in the project’s AI and agent-related rollout. In a blog post announcing IronClaw 1.0, NEAR AI said the release is deployed across NEAR Foundation and NEAR AI.

The official recap also grouped the updates with broader AI and agent infrastructure changes, suggesting the deployments were part of a wider set of July deliveries rather than a standalone launch. That framing matters for readers tracking the project’s product pace: the post presents staking and IronClaw as live components, not as plans or test-stage features.

What NEAR said changed

According to the recap shared by NEAR Protocol, NEAR staking for NEAR AI compute is now live. The same update says IronClaw 1.0 has launched on mainnet, adding an additional deployment milestone to the project’s AI stack.

A separate post from a member of the project community also pointed to staking mechanics for NEAR AI compute and IronClaw hosting, but the clearest public confirmation in the material comes from NEAR’s own recap and the IronClaw 1.0 announcement.

The available information does not spell out all operational details of the deployments in one place, but it does make one thing clear: NEAR is presenting both the compute staking component and IronClaw 1.0 as active releases rather than future roadmap items.
