ZkPass is a cutting-edge oracle protocol designed to enable users to verify personal data—such as identity, financial records, or credentials—without revealing the underlying information. By leveraging advanced cryptographic techniques, including Multi-Party Computation (MPC), Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKP), and a modified version of Transport Layer Security (3P-TLS), zkPass facilitates secure and private data verification across Web2 and Web3 platforms.
Key Highlights:
- Privacy-Preserving Verification: Users can generate proofs of specific data attributes (e.g., age, account ownership) without disclosing the actual data. This is achieved through zero-knowledge proofs, ensuring that sensitive information remains confidential.
- TransGate SDK: A developer toolkit that enables seamless integration of zkPass's verification capabilities into applications. It supports low-code integration and is compatible with HTTPS-based web sessions, eliminating the need for APIs or direct data access.
- Hybrid ZK System: zkPass has developed a memory-efficient hybrid zero-knowledge proof system, including VOLE-ZK and zk-SNARKs algorithms. This system allows users to generate proofs in milliseconds within a browser environment, even on devices with limited resources.
Recent Milestones:
- Funding: zkPass secured 2.5 million in seed funding in August 2023, with investors including Binance Labs, Sequoia China, and OKX Ventures. In October 2024, it raised an additional12.5 million in a Series A round, bringing its total funding to 15 million and achieving a100 million token valuation. [1]
