Polygon Deploys Palm Recognition Technology In AI Battlefront; Key Details Inside

Summary

Polygon, Animoca Brands, and The Human Institute have launched Humanity Protocol on Polygon chain Development Kit (CDK) to establish Proof of Humanity in Web3 applications using palm recognition technology. The protocol aims to provide a user-centric approach to identity verification, leveraging Polygon CDK and PoH consensus mechanism. It plans to become "truly" Sybil-resistant and integrate verifiable credentials into a decentralized validator node network. The protocol is set to enable various blockchain and real-world applications and aims to onboard the first billion humans onto the blockchain. Despite a recent retracement, Polygon’s native token, MATIC, has shown significant gains over longer time frames.
