Does it accept a passport from any country? How are they verified? Couldn't counterfeit passports slip through? How do you make sure a passport is used only once? Doesn't this make you a target to a state level attack?
- numtel 4y agoStripe Identity is used to verify passports, it supports 33 countries (mostly NA and EU) right now. A salted hash of the country code and passport number is published on chain which allows only one instance per passport. As far as a state level attack, it's possible. A complete solution to Sybil resistance is not simple. The passport verification service is at https://coinpassport.net https://coinpassport.net if you would like more information.
- remram 4y agoHow does it deal with people who have multiple passports? Or renew their passports when they expire? I have two valid passports right now, with different numbers, issued by the same country. Stripe Identity seems to very explicitly not be intended to guarantee any form of uniqueness.
