DID You Boost Your Gitcoin Passport Score?
DID You Boost Your Gitcoin Passport Score?Exploring Decentralized Identity Providers To Maximize Matching FundsProtocols that focus on DID, or Decentralized Identity, have been around for years, but many are still not known outside of their niche communities. That’s gradually changing, and programs like Gitcoin Grants help spread awareness. GG Round 19 is in full swing, and to aid you in your donation journey, we shipped a thread on how to boost your Gitcoin Passport score earlier this week. Now let’s take a look at some of the lesser-known DID projects involved with Gitcoin Passport which could help you to maximize your Unique Humanity Score: a 0–100 scale developed to measure our uniqueness as a human onchain. The higher the score, the more matching funds the projects you donate to will receive. What DID we do to get our score higher? Read on frens.

IdenaFounded in 2019, Idena is a blockchain with Sybil resistance built into the block validation system. Idena pioneered Proof-of-Person, which enables anonymous proof of uniqueness for each network participant; it “does not require any personal data sharing, does not reveal a person’s identity, and does not need a third-party identification center.” To do this, Idena uses what it calls ‘synchronous validation sessions’ where prior validators and new initiates attend a ‘checkpoint ritual’ where people prove their personhood by synchronously solving timed puzzles which are hard for bots but simple for humans. The result of this is that each blockchain node is linked to a person. Because of the built in Sybil resistance, you can get nearly 10 points added to your Gitcoin Passport score if you are an Idena validator. CivicCivic is the creator of the Civic Pass, an onchain identity management tool. Holders of a wallet-bound Civic Pass are required to go through a multi-step verification process, which can include proof of uniqueness, liveliness, reliance on ID documents, and location. Unlike with Idena, you will be required to record a short video-selfie to prove uniqueness. After completing that step and a cute CAPTCHA that asks you if you have what is commonly referred to as a soul, you’ll be prompted to pay a small admin fee and gas fees for minting the pass. You’ll want to do all three except for ID Verification, which Gitcoin doesn’t take into account for Stamp scoring. It took me 10 minutes (and two selfies!) to get my Civic Pass by completing Uniqueness, Liveness, and CAPTCHA verification, and I added six more points to my Passport score… Please continue reading on our website |
