Decentralized Identity Wallet (DID)

Tychi Wallet introduces an integrated Decentralized Identity (DID) system that allows users to manage, verify, and share digital identities securely—without reliance on centralized authorities.

✅ DID Standards

Tychi adheres to globally recognized DID frameworks such as W3C specifications. Each DID is self-sovereign and cryptographically bound to the user.


🔐 Cryptographic Proofs

We leverage Elliptic Curve Cryptography (ECC) to generate and verify proofs of ownership. This ensures identity integrity, tamper resistance, and verifiability.


🪪 Verifiable Credentials (VCs)

Users can issue and present credentials (e.g., degrees, licenses) directly from their wallet.

  • Self-signed using private keys

  • No third-party validation required

  • Used in DApp interactions and verification workflows


🧠 Key Management

  • Hierarchical Deterministic (HD) wallets securely manage identity keys.

  • Integrated social recovery and multi-sig access strengthen key resilience.


🔓 User Authentication

Combines three-factor authentication (3FA):

  • Biometric verification (face/fingerprint)

  • Password/passphrase

  • OTP-based device login Ensures only verified users can access identity data.


🌐 Web3 Integration

  • DApps can request identity verification directly from the wallet.

  • Smart contract–based attestations streamline onboarding across platforms.


🛡️ Privacy Features

  • Zero-Knowledge Proofs (ZKPs) allow users to prove identity traits without revealing full details.

  • Users maintain full control over what is shared and with whom.


🧭 Example Workflow

  1. User creates a DID and issues verifiable credentials via Tychi Wallet.

  2. A DApp requests verification of a credential.

  3. The DApp queries the blockchain to validate the associated DID.

  4. Tychi verifies and returns a ZKP-based attestation.
