New Paradigm of Web3 Identification Layer: Solo Creates a Trustworthy Anonymous Identification System

In the Web3 ecosystem, the identity layer has long been absent, leading to systemic issues such as witch attacks and the lack of a reputation system. The Solo project attempts to strike a balance between privacy protection, identification uniqueness, and decentralized verifiability through its unique zkHE architecture, aiming to build a trustworthy and anonymous on-chain identity system.

The core team of Solo is strong, with the CEO having studied at Yale School of Management and founded a blockchain society. The two co-founders have profound experience in the fields of blockchain and artificial intelligence, respectively. Technically, Solo is centered on the zkHE solution, integrating Pedersen commitments, homomorphic encryption, and zero-knowledge proofs to achieve identity verification under privacy protection.

The current Web3 identification solutions in the market are mainly divided into biometric, social trust, DID aggregation, and behavioral analysis categories, but they generally struggle to balance privacy, uniqueness, and decentralization. Solo chooses to base its solution on biometric identification, addressing privacy and verifiability issues through cryptographic techniques.

In the zkHE architecture, identification is secured through dual encryption using homomorphic encryption and zero-knowledge proofs. Homomorphic encryption allows computations to be performed in an encrypted state, while zero-knowledge proofs generate a proof of "I am the only real human." The entire process is completed locally on the user's device, protecting sensitive information.

The Solo solution has a very high verification efficiency, using the Groth16 zk-SNARK framework, allowing for millisecond-level on-chain verification. Experiments show that under high-dimensional biometric data, the authentication time of Solo is far superior to traditional ZKP solutions. The client performance has also been optimized, with ordinary smartphones able to complete the verification process within 2-4 seconds.

Solo provides a new path to break the "impossible triangle" of the Web3 identification layer. In terms of privacy, all processing is done locally; uniqueness is achieved through encrypted feature comparison; availability is ensured by optimization for quick verification on mobile devices. The system also reserves compliance docking interfaces to meet regulatory requirements.

As a foundational consensus module for identity stack, Solo focuses on providing privacy-preserving human uniqueness proof infrastructure. It can complement existing solutions such as DID and VC, establishing a verifiable and composable real identity foundation for the on-chain ecosystem.

Currently, Solo has reached cooperation with multiple protocols and platforms, covering vertical fields such as data annotation and DePIN networks. This will further validate its feasibility and help optimize user experience and system performance. Solo is expected to become an important underlying facility to promote the evolution of on-chain identification systems and the expansion of compliance applications.
