Humanity Protocol is a sybil-resistant network of blockchains designed to onboard the first billion users to Web3 by enabling secure, private, and decentralized identity verification. At its core is the Proof of Humanity (PoH) system, which offers developers innovative tools for human authentication and gives users full ownership of their data and identity. By using cutting-edge palm recognition technology—a more accessible and less invasive alternative to methods like iris scans—Humanity Protocol enables identity verification directly via smartphones without storing any personal information.
To power this ecosystem, Humanity Protocol introduces the $HP token, an ERC-20 token with a fixed supply of 10 billion. The $HP token is integral to key functions such as humanity attestation, credential validation, and identity verification. It also fuels community incentives, governance participation, and rewards for zkProofers and Identity Validators. This tokenomics model ensures fair distribution of verification fees and project-based incentives to node operators, creating a sustainable and balanced economic environment.
As the human layer for Web3, Humanity Protocol is building the foundation for a decentralized digital identity system. By combining privacy-preserving technology with meaningful economic incentives, it empowers individuals while ensuring trust and authenticity in the digital world.
