Who Owns You? It's Time to Control Your Identity
summary
Humanity Protocol claims a verification blockchain that proves real people using palm print and palm veins turned into an encrypted biometric signature, built from an acquired seven‑year palm‑tech stack and hardware rollouts in Europe and Asia. It says a recent private round values the project at $1B and testnet already has just over 6 million signups with millions of credentials. Identity validators issue credentials, earn fees when verifications are checked, and Fairrops/fairdrops.com and testnet.humanity.org are live components.
