BrightID protocol
Overview
BrightID operates as a decentralized system for establishing proof of personhood. It employs a social graph to confirm that a given user is a distinct individual, avoiding dependence on centralised entities and the retention of private information. The protocol allows applications to defend against Sybil attacks through a mechanism of reciprocal verification between trusted contacts.
