Web 3 Reshape Authentication
summary
Claims that web3 replaces centralized identity with a user-controlled crypto wallet holding private keys and verifiable credentials, ties biometric liveness checks and government IDs to keys, and achieves remote enrollment at NIST 800-63-3 IAL2 with passwordless AAL2 authentication. Describes a built flow that proofs passport/driver’s license plus selfie, binds a private key to that biometric, and logs attestations on-chain; cites standards like verifiable credentials and FIDO/WebAuthn and reports vendor platforms and working groups already implementing certification.
