Aztec Labs has acquired Obsidion, the team behind ZKPassport, a privacy-preserving identity verification protocol built on zero-knowledge cryptography, according to a press release published Wednesday.
Obsidion co-founders Michael Elliot and Theo Madzou join Aztec Labs along with their team. The acquisition brings ZKPassport's production-ready identity verification system into Aztec's ecosystem as the protocol expands across consumer and enterprise use cases.
ZKPassport enables users to prove age, nationality, and proof of humanity without uploading personal data to any central server.
