# Identity & Verifiable Credentials

> How OpenFi proves a human or agent is real without exposing personal data.

OpenFi issues privacy-preserving credentials tied to a real-world, KYC-compliant bank verification, so a counterparty can check "is this a verified unique human or agent?" without ever seeing a name, country, or government ID.

## Format

* **Standard:** W3C Verifiable Credentials, VC-JWT format
* **Issuer DID:** `did:web:openfi.co`
* **Subject DID (wallets):** `did:pkh`

## What it's used for

* **Sybil resistance**: confirming a wallet belongs to a unique, non-duplicated verified identity before it can participate in a payment, governance action, or token distribution
* **Agent attestation**: letting one autonomous agent verify a counterparty agent or service is backed by a real, KYC'd commercial entity before transacting
