Parity Technologies, owned by Polkadot co-founder Gavin Wood, is about to launch a Web3 authentication solution called Proof-of-Ink, which aims to prove the user's digital identity in a privacy-protected form through a unique tattoo.
Gavin Wood said that Proof-of-Ink is expected to be launched in the fourth quarter of 2024. Users need to tattoo a unique tattoo generated by an algorithm on a specific body part and upload the last three minutes of the tattoo process as proof of digital identity. In addition, users need to pay a small amount of DOT tokens or community-shared vouchers to prevent abuse. (Cointelegraph)
