Polkadot Unveils Bold Vision for Proof-of-Personhood Identity System
At the ongoing Web3 Summit 2025 in Berlin, Gavin Wood, founder and originator of Solidity smart contract language, unveiled a groundbreaking concept – Proof-of-Personhood (PoP) identity system. This innovative project aims to enable decentralized human verification directly on-chain.
The PoP release will be supported by a treasury proposal valued at $3 million. Additionally, the protocol will debut with what Wood considers the “fairest airdrop ever.” The Polkadot Blockchain Academy (PBA) has been supporting and nurturing talent in Singapore through its fifth edition, launched at the end of May 2024.
Polkadot also secured a sponsorship deal with football team Inter Miami, becoming their Global Training Partner.
