Your digital identity. It's you in the digital world. What if that “you” is being exploited against you, and unknowingly at that? We tend to imagine cybersecurity as purely a tech issue, one addressed with firewalls and black-box algorithms. I'm here to tell you the real vulnerability isn't in the...
Reusable digital identity solutions are picking up steam, with verifiable credentials becoming a central technology to tackle today’s challenges and more. Dock Labs has hands on experience working with the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF). They’re working on other solutions, including Truvera, to address these challenges. The user-held digital identity market...
Our world is evolving to be more digital by the minute. As this transformation occurs, we will require more secure and efficient ways to control our digital identities. Reusable digital identities present a powerful antidote. They enable end users to authenticate with the same credentials, whether commercial or government service...
Imagine this: Sarah, a recently widowed teacher, finally decides to dabble in DeFi after hearing about the amazing yields. She creates an AI agent that can automatically stake for her, so she can earn some passive income on top of her usual earnings. A week later, poof, all her retirement...
No one can deny that Intellicheck’s partnership with Accio Data, announced last month, is shaking things up. Is this evolution in fraud prevention really all that urgent? Or does it instead threaten to undermine our privacy in exchange for the false promise of security? Here’s what this integration looks like...
The promise of the internet was decentralization. Somewhere down the line, we have traded convenience for control. In the process, we surrendered our identities to a few corporate behemoths who monetized our data for profit. Now, Decentralized Identity (DID) looks set to wrestle that power back. Is this indeed a...
Although I helped coin the term “cryptocolonialism,” I’ve watched the rise of Worldcoin with gag reflex-inducing incredulity. Sam Altman's vision of a world where human identity is verified through iris scans… well, it sounds like the plot of a dystopian sci-fi novel, doesn't it? Nevermind the facade of fighting bots...
Remember the old Irish tales of changelings? Faerie changelings and exchanging a healthy babe for a weakly one, abandoning families unwittingly rearing a changeling of the cryptids. We scoff, call it superstition. What if I were to tell you that the same transformational experience is happening today—in your bank account,...
The password is dying. Good riddance, right? We’ve all been there – staring blankly at a password reset screen for the tenth time this month, cursing the day complexity requirements were invented. That vision of a passwordless utopia, propelled by AI’s boundless capabilities, is all too tempting. In fact, tech...
The World Project, an initiative created by OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman, was officially opened in the United States on May 1, 2025. The now-controversial project aims to change the way people verify their digital identity, using eye-scanning Orbs. This project, collaboratively developed by Tools for Humanity, aims to create a...
Remember the early days of the internet? Wild West, right? That’s how DeFi seemed just a few years ago. “Rug pulls” started entering the broader crypto lexicon. That’s starting to change and for the better. We know regulation can be a buzzkill but it’s the only way to find out...
Humanity Protocol opened the doors to its fast and secure decentralized ID service on June 26. The H token saw its value explode following a successful “Fairdrop” to early users and supporters. The H token, meanwhile, has seen a 40% price surge over the last 24 hours. The flood, of...
The crypto world loves a good narrative, and Humanity Protocol's H token is dripping with one: a fairdrop revolution. Yet the promise is unmistakable. We will fight to reclaim airdrops from the arms of the bot armies and restore them to actual, live human beings. The method? Palm scans. Yes,...
It’s that same sort of exuberance you felt when you first heard about the metaverse. The fulfillment of digital utopia, being in touch with everyone on planet Earth through expansive online metaverses, creating prosperous virtual societies? It sounded revolutionary. Now, look at Horizon Worlds. Clunky avatars, digital tumbleweeds, and a...
Zuckerberg wants AGI. Personal superintelligence, he calls it. An AI that essentially runs your life. Sounds convenient, right? Maybe. But let's be brutally honest: entrusting the keys to your existence to a single, centralized entity – especially one with Zuckerberg's track record – is a recipe for disaster. Well, it’s...
Just as Mark Zuckerberg made headlines with a big pivot to the now overly-hyped Metaverse, he’s undertaking another big pivot. He’s recently been exploring the thrilling worlds of AI and AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). After the hype and billions of dollars, Meta’s Metaverse projects—especially Horizon Worlds—have found difficulty in attracting...

DeFi might seem like a remote world, but I’ll never forget being at a DeFi conference last year. The typical panicky lunge for registration lines, relatable uncomfortable small talk… but then, wait, what’s this. Rather than needing to keep up with a paper name tag, I simply scanned a QR...
