AugustZKpassport

The foundation for compliant, private DeFi - a ZK-proof system for private KYC/identity verification.

Overview

AugustZKpassport enables users to prove identity claims (like being over 18) without revealing sensitive personal information. Using zero-knowledge proofs, we allow for regulatory compliance while preserving privacy.

Key Features

• Age Verification: Prove you're over 18 without revealing your actual birthdate
• Ethereum Integration: On-chain verification of ZK proofs
• User-Friendly Demo: Generate and verify proofs through a simple interface

Technical Components

• ZK Circuits: Built with Circom
• Smart Contracts: Solidity verifiers for Ethereum
• Frontend: React application for demonstration

Getting Started

Prerequisites

• Node.js (v16+)
• npm or yarn
• Circom (v2.0.0+)
