Next.ID: Building the identity infrastructure for next-gen social graph

What is Next.ID?

Next.ID,the world’s first protocol offering Decentralized Identity as a Service (DIaaS).It enable users integrate web2 and web3 digital identities.As the world’s first Decentralized Identity Service, Next.ID creates an identity infrastructure that securely aggregates users identities into Avatars, making it the primary touch point for interfacing with any app or DApp.Next.ID’s Avatars exist independently from Web2 and Web3, using a blockchain-like model to retain data integrity. This allows Next.ID to connect to all Web2 and Web3 platforms, aggregating all identities in a fully-agnostic way, unifying them into one single decentralized identifier (DID).

These Avatars are

1.Cryptographic key pairs, making them tamper-proof and unhackable

2.Used on an opt-in basis, that mean you can create as many or as few of them as you want

3.Usable and operationable across any platform that supports integration with Next.ID.

What social graph project can be build upon with Next.ID?

At the dawn of Web3, Next.ID is here to build a decentralized social graph identity protocol that serves Web2 and Web3 social networks.Our mission is to return the ownership of digital identity data back to users while providing an infrastructure for all Web3 developers to integrate and build upon.With Next.ID, the ownership of identity will be returned to users.You will own your digital identity on Planet.

Next.ID aims to build a decentralized identity protocol that returns identity ownership and utilities back to both Web2 and Web3 users and developers while inviting all Web2 and Web3 social networks and to scale with us. A blockchain-agnostic infrastructure, Next.ID uses blockchain model for app development and allows DApps to access and use digital identity provided by users themselves.We envision Next.ID as a identity infrastructure for both Web2 and Web3 applications, and developers can plug the identity module into their applications with simple codes.Next.ID identity datastore is built with arweave, and identity avatars are fully visible on arweave network.Next.ID gateway provides a highly interoperable layer for DApps to start plugging in social accounts for their users.Any decentralized identity application that can easily integrate next.id and no longer need to worry about maintaining your own digital identity database.Some high potential scopes~

1.Decentralized universal login system:Next.ID can replace password-based logins with decentralized authentication.A cryptographically secure sig-based authentication,this is a novel authentication solution that will help you manage your wallet using your digital identity.

2.KYC authentication:Individuals are required to provide verifiable authentication to use your online service.you want to be able to verify that the data was actually given by that user. This is typically an easy problem to solve once you have decentralized identity — Next.ID provides a unique DID through which you can store a signature that authenticates the individual.

3.Voting system & online communities:DID based voting system will help keep the online community safe. Since it’s signature based, not possible to cast fake votes.

We striving for wider adoptions of decentralized identities. The decentralized identity social graph we desire is an extensive hyper multi graph, the indispensable building block for prosperous identity applications on Web2 and Web3 Platforms.

Next.ID is a trustless platform and promising solution for self- sovereign identities, which would always run by community.We always welcome developers integrate with Next.ID.
