zkKYC Framework
zkKYC Framework
zkKYC (Zero-Knowledge Know-Your-Customer) provides regulatory-grade compliance without centralized data collection.
zkShine’s zkKYC allows users to prove they are compliant (e.g., from a specific country, above age limit, non-sanctioned) using cryptographic attestations, not documents.
System Workflow
User performs KYC verification via a zkShine-approved verifier (e.g., third-party KYC oracle).
The verifier issues a zkAttestation stored in zkVault.
The user generates a zkProof confirming compliance (“verified”) without sharing personal data.
Any dApp or smart contract can validate the proof directly on Solana.
Advantages
No sensitive data on-chain or server-side
Fully compliant with privacy regulations (GDPR, APPI, etc.)
Compatible with zkIdentity and zkReputation layers
Enables permissioned DeFi and institutional access without central custodians
