Head of BD Nontechnical

About Solana ID

We are building the next level of enhanced UX for the blockchain world by using identity systems to equip crypto wallets with privacy-preserving user data.

Why?

We believe dApps need to stop serving strangers and start serving customers. Targeted advertisement and account-tailored userflows can greatly enhance usability and efficiency of web3 applications but are mostly unchartered territory until now.

Funded by Presto Labs, G20, SwissBorg and the zkPass Ecosystem Fund as well as working hand in hand with Solana Foundation, we are primed to make an impact in the broader crypto space, obviously starting with Solana.
