The Global Identity Challenge

Current systems are broken:
  • Centralized databases concentrate risk, creating surveillance and mass breaches.
  • Self-sovereign identity wallets give users control but lack interoperability and usability.
  • Cross-border compliance remains fragmented, excluding billions from the digital economy.
The result:
  • 1.4 billion people remain unverified and unbanked.
  • $4 trillion lost yearly to counterfeit trade.
  • Impersonation fraud rising faster than any other cybercrime.
The need:
A model that connects privacy with accountability, and local sovereignty with global interoperability.

Digital Identity 2.0

A hybrid architecture combining decentralized verification, jurisdictional custody, and zero-knowledge proof compliance.
Core Principles:

  • Privacy: no central database or exposure of private data.

  • Accountability: every verification is auditable under the law of its jurisdiction.

  • Sovereignty: each Notary Node operates under a legal framework tied to a nation or authority.


Digital Identity 2.0 White Paper

Architecture

Notary Nodes

Operate under local jurisdiction to manage attestations and ensure lawful data custody. They are the backbone of the trust network.

Proof of Life™

Face-to-face or video-based verification ensures that a verified person truly exists — without revealing private documents.

Trust Signal

A dynamic confidence indicator — green = verified, yellow = unverified, red = under review — tied to ongoing human validation.

Trust Score

A dynamic confidence indicator — tied to ongoing human validation.

Stealth ID

A Notarized Sovereign ID, Zero-Knowledge Proof (ZKP) to authenticate attributes while keeping personal data private. TONstealthID

V-Link (Verified Link)

Extends an authenticated identity to businesses, wallets, or products. It inherits the Notary Node’s sovereignty, allowing authentic transactions without exposure.

ZK QR

ZK QR generates zero-knowledge proof-based QR codes to authenticate transactions, products, or URLs.

Double Pendulum Privacy Model

At the core of Digital Identity 2.0, the Double Pendulum Architecture separates identity contexts: each identity (person, business, or product) is an independent pendulum — private, isolated, and resilient.

Comparative Landscape

Model Custodian Strength Limitation
Centralized Identity Governments / Corporates Simplicity, efficiency Single point of failure, surveillance risk
Self-Sovereign Identity (SSID) User-controlled wallets User autonomy Complex, poor interoperability
Notarized Sovereign Identity (NSID) Jurisdictional Notary Nodes Balanced privacy, legal accountability, interoperability None inherent — adaptable to law
