TechFlow News, May 28: According to an official announcement, Aztec Labs has acquired Obsidion—the team behind ZKPassport. The Obsidion team will continue developing ZKPassport while also leading the development of new consumer-facing products. The ZKPassport protocol will remain open-source.
Aztec Labs stated that ZKPassport enables users to prove attributes such as age, nationality, or sanctions status using government-issued identity documents—without uploading any personal data to a server and without personal data ever leaving the user’s device. It currently supports over 130 countries and regions and has previously been used for nationality and sanctions compliance verification during the Aztec Network token sale.
