idOS

The idOS network is growing: > 175,000+ verified humans > 200,000+ Verifiable Credentials issued > 21,000,000+ IDOS staked with validators Decentralized identity is finally taking off!

Why this is structurally different? An agent can't leak what it can't read. Prompt injection, jailbreaks, malicious MCPs? None can steal you data in plaintext, because it never existed. This is a policy - not a property. Enabled by idOS.

Your data is yours, agents only carry an opaque blob. No agent, prompt, LLM provider (or of course idOS) holds a key that can open it. Planner agent routes work. Worker fetches the grant. Broker presents to the merchant. LLM host runs the prompt. None can see the data. 👇

Agentic AI needs a secure data flow. Agents route. Recipients read. That's what idOS enables. idOS is your self-custodial, decentralized storage for personal data. When you share it, an access grant is created and your data is end-to-end re-encrypted to the recipient's key. 👇

We can attest to that (decentralized identity pun intended). @provenauthority, @davidsrz and the rest of the team have been in the identity trenches for many years. Looking forward to continue building together!

@basche42 @CarlKVogel @ethentree Hey @CarlKVogel, we have been building this for more than 3 years, and have some interesting integrations we are working on. Do you want to chat?

Market is ripe for a new KYC / Identity product to thrive onchain

@Jklunden Hey @idOS_network

🚨 BREAKING: France’s Digital ID System Hacked—Sensitive Data of 19 Million Citizens Now Sold on the Dark Web France’s centralized digital identity platform, operated by France Titres (formerly ANTS), suffered a major breach on April 15, 2026. Hackers stole records affecting roughly one-third of the French population and started auctioning them on dark web forums. The exposed database contains: • Full names • Email addresses and phone numbers • Dates and places of birth • Postal addresses • Unique government account IDs This information gives criminals powerful tools for identity theft, phishing campaigns, synthetic identities, and large-scale financial fraud. The system manages passports, national ID cards, driver’s licenses, residency permits, and vehicle registrations. Officials confirmed no biometric photos or uploaded documents were taken, but the core personal data is now circulating. Hackers operating under aliases like “breach3d” and “ExtaseHunters” posted the massive dump soon after the intrusion. French authorities acknowledged the security incident and are notifying affected individuals, though the sheer scale makes rapid alerts challenging. France has seen multiple major government data breaches recently, including student records via ÉduConnect, bank account details, and medical information. Centralized systems handling vast amounts of linked personal data create high-value targets that attract persistent attackers. Action steps if you’re in France or have connections there: • Closely monitor all financial and government accounts • Strengthen 2FA on every service • Stay alert for phishing attempts impersonating official agencies • Consider credit monitoring or freezes where available French authorities detained a 15-year-old suspect on April 25 in connection with the breach. The teenager is believed to have operated under the alias “breach3d” and offered between 12 and 18 million records for sale on hacking forums. Prosecutors in Paris have opened a formal investigation into the minor on computer crime charges. The full story is still unfolding as more details emerge about how the breach occurred and the exact scope of the exposure. This incident highlights the profound dangers of centralized digital ID systems. When governments consolidate citizens’ most sensitive personal information into single, internet-connected databases, they create massive single points of failure. One successful hack can expose millions instantly, turning everyday personal details into weapons for widespread fraud and surveillance. As nations push for broader digital ID adoption, this breach serves as a stark reminder that convenience and control come at the steep price of heightened vulnerability for entire populations.

@OseroHQ @SkyEcosystem @Plasma It's great to see new financial use cases coming onchain. Congratulations @OseroHQ!

Osero has raised $13.5M, led by @SkyEcosystem and @Plasma. We're building the savings account for where your stablecoins already are.

Linking agents to humans is a great step, but not enough. The missing half: a reliable data layer for agents. idOS is a self-custodial, encrypted, decentralized storage that gives agents a data rail - without ever letting them read your data.

Sensitive data and agents don't work out today. Your passport, KYC docs, medical records - all in plaintext across the agent's context, LLM logs, every MCP server in the workflow. We've all seen the headlines. Agents leaking user data isn't a hypothetical issue anymore. 👇

Every agent transaction is two flows: a value flow and a data flow. The value flow evolved - x402, AP2, ACP, wallets w/ spend limits. But this only half the equation for many use cases. ✈️ Booking a flight requires a payment, but also to share your passport. 👇

When identity belongs to the person holding it and not the platform storing it, trust has a foundation worth building on. That guarantee is made possible with MPC and we are proud to be part of it. Congratulations @idOS_network

The idOS network is growing! 200,000 verified humans. Not accounts. Not wallets. Unique humans. idOS is becoming the identity layer of the internet: reusable, self-custodial identity credentials for the stablecoin economy.

That is where idOS fits: verify once and reuse everywhere. KYC reusability built with privacy and security at the core. We built composable money. Now it's time to bring everyone onchain.

But they do not scale with repeated onboarding, repeated document uploads, and fragmented compliance - even across features offered to users in the same front end. Composability must extend to user onboarding and compliance. 👇

DeFi did not just have a bad few days. It exposed its weak point: TVL with no reason to stay. The next phase of onchain finance should be built on products users actually depend on, not just yields they can leave overnight. 👇

We launched a portal for integrators and users to check the health in real time of all idOS components, apps and endpoints. 👉 Check it out: status.idos.network

Today, idOS focuses on 3 identity areas, each at a different stage of market readiness: 🔥 KYC orchestration: clear demand, ready now 🔧 Zero-knowledge KYC: hype is over, real building starts 🔓 Agent identity: rising risk awareness creates a major crypto-native opportunity

On-chain solved Access. Regulatory moats, KYC at scale, local rails. Genuinely hard. Largely done. And being commoditised as we write. The next era is intelligence, knowing which route is cheapest at this millisecond, which counterparty is a risk before you send, why the payment froze three hops ago. The data layer for on-chain payments doesn't exist yet. It needs to. Read our full piece by @ahansjee on the The Sovereign Intelligent Payment-Chain fabric.vc/writing/the-so…
