Project background

Humanity Protocol

Humanity Protocol is a privacy‑first proof‑of‑personhood network that verifies unique humans with palm biometrics and zero‑knowledge proofs. Its self‑sovereign credentials power Sybil‑resistant apps, fair governance, and on‑chain UBI.

  • Humanity Protocol - $1.1B FDV Raise: What You Need to Know

    But World is not the only player in the human provability space. Humanity Protocol has also emerged, announcing a fresh raise from Pantera Capital and Jump Crypto at a $1.1B FDV. In today’s edition, we’ll discuss the broader need for human provability in the age of AI, what Humanity brings to the table in this regard, and what to expect in the future from this team…

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to common questions about Humanity Protocol

1

How is Humanity Protocol different from Worldcoin’s iris scan?

It uses a non‑invasive palm print + vein image that stays on your device and proves uniqueness with zero‑knowledge proofs, avoiding heavy hardware and centralized raw‑image storage.

2

What is “Proof‑of‑Humanity”?

A zk proof that you’re a single, living human; once issued, it becomes a reusable credential for airdrops, governance, or KYC‑lite access.

3

Who validates that my proof is legit?

Distributed Identity Validators and zkProofer nodes verify the zk proof, then add the credential to Humanity’s open identity graph.

4

How are my palm scans protected from AI spoofing?

Vein‑pattern “liveness” checks and zk proofs make replicas useless, while palm vein tech has no reported successful spoof attacks to date.

5

What funds the network long‑term?

Small fees on credential issuance and verification flow to validators; the upcoming $H token aligns incentives for humans, apps, and node operators.
