For Individuals

The Individuals track enables people to enter Tythe’s credibility ecosystem by activating a TRIS ID. This path is designed for anyone who wants to build verifiable trust online, whether as a user, or developer.

All individual onboarding flows result in:

  • A TRIS ID (your onchain identity shell)

  • Eligibility to earn TCT and build a DISC Score

  • Access to credibility-based tools, features, and enforcement privileges

Tythe does not require identity exposure. All verifications are ZK-powered, preserving privacy while enforcing uniqueness and behavioral accountability.

What Types of Individuals Can Onboard?

Tythe recognizes that not all contributors engage in the same way. Individuals self-select within one of two designations:

Role
Description
Example Use Case

Users

Traders, learners, community members, investors

Building a reputation across platforms

Developers

Builders, engineers, creators, educators

Linking contributions to a credible ID

1. Users

2. Developers

Best for individuals wanting to create a credible Web3 résumé for contributions and collaboration.

zk-KYH (Know Your Human)

zk-KYH is Tythe’s zero-knowledge identity verification process for Individuals. It proves that a TRIS belongs to a real, unique human — without revealing biometric or private information. While optional at first, it is required to activate the DISC Stack and begin building a DISC Score.

Step 1: Wallet Linking

All users must link a wallet to begin onboarding.

  • Supported onboarding options:

    • MetaMask, Phantom, OKX Wallet, Coinbase Wallet, TrustWallet, WalletConnect, Rainbow Wallet, Rabby Wallet

  • Post-onboarding, users can link any additional wallets from the dashboard (cross-VM support is enabled)

Step 2: Social Account Ownership via Reclaim (Waitlist users only)

  • Required only for users coming through the TRIS waitlist

  • Verifies ownership of X (Twitter)/Gmail (depending on social provision during waitlist signup)

  • Ensures the waitlist slot is matched to the rightful owner

  • Prevents credential reselling or identity slot transfers

Step 3: zk-KYH Verification (Optional, but required for DISC Score activation)

  • Proves human uniqueness using a ZK proof, practicing a no raw biometric data storage policy

  • Providers:

Behavioral Permissions Based on zk-KYH Status:

Verified Humans:

  • Earn TRIS username selection rights

  • Eligible for DISC Score computation

  • Unlock Trovebook submissions

  • Enable TCT accrual and Credonation privileges

  • Full OS Stack access

Unverified Humans:

  • Autogenerated username provision by Tythe

  • TRIS minted but DISC Score and OS Stack access remains dormant

  • Complete verification prompts to unlock full functionality

Step 4: Username Selection & ZKP Generation

  • Users who complete zk-KYH can select their TRIS handle (e.g., @satoshi)

  • A ZKP is generated confirming onboarding sequence completion

  • A hash of this proof is stored in the user’s Trovebook, tied to their wallet

Username Rules:

  • Must be unique across Tythe

  • No impersonation or trademarked names (validated via backend filter)

Note: Users who skip zk-KYH will not be allowed to choose a username — Tythe will assign one automatically.

Waitlist Enforcement

  • If a waitlist user fails to complete zk-KYH, their reserved slot is given to the next eligible individual in the queue

  • Waitlist order is strictly enforced through Reclaim and zk-KYH validation

What You’ll Need to Get Started

To activate your TRIS and begin building credibility, you’ll go through:

  • Wallet Connection — Enables onchain anchoring of your identity.

  • ZK-KYH (Recommended) — Proves uniqueness without revealing identity.

  • Optional Verifications — Such as GitHub, X, Kaito via Reclaim Protocol.

  • Username Selection — Your global, non-transferable @TRIS handle.

  • NFT Avatar (Optional) — Use a verified NFT or select a protocol-generated one.

  • Wallet Linking (Optional) — Add multiple addresses to build under one identity.

TRIS activation is completely free.

After Onboarding

Once your TRIS is active, you can:

  • Begin earning TCT through verified actions

  • Submit contributions to your Trovebook

  • Put your TCT to work by using the Credonate and staking feature

  • Build a public DISC Score across all seven metrics

  • Participate in trust-gated opportunities across the Tythe ecosystem

Every action you take; whether staking, submitting, contributing, or voting, flows through your TRIS ID and contributes to your DISC Score.
