Meet Regulatory Requirements Without Storing Identity Documents Nuggets provides decentralized identity and compliance infrastructure for regulated organizations that need to meet KYC and KYB requirements without building centralized identity databases. Verification produces reusable verifiable credentials and encrypted, tamper-evident compliance artifacts rather than a growing repository of passports and biometrics. Organizations meet regulatory obligations through verifiable proof and controlled retention, not identity document warehousing.

The Problem With Traditional Compliance Architecture

Conventional KYC and KYB stacks typically:
  • Collect identity documents and biometric data
  • Store them centrally for regulatory retention periods
  • Accumulate long-term breach exposure and liability
  • Re-run verification repeatedly across products and channels
The risk is architectural. centralized identity stores become high-value targets and expand over time. Compliance requirements do not mandate identity accumulation. They require demonstrable verification and auditable evidence.

Privacy-Preserving Compliance Architecture

Nuggets separates verification from long-term storage.

Identity Verification

  • Government ID validation and NFC passport verification where available
  • Biometric face match and liveness detection as required
  • Verifiable Credentials issued to the holder
  • An encrypted, tamper-evident Auditable Nugget generated as the compliance record

KYB & Organizational Identity

  • Business registration and beneficial ownership inputs credentialized
  • Organizational identity credentials issued
  • Delegated authority cryptographically bound to the organization for controlled cross-system use
The relying organization receives cryptographic proof that verification occurred.
It does not need to retain passport scans or business registration documents at scale.

Architecture & Technical Components

  • W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs)
  • Verifiable Credentials (KYC, KYB, delegated authority)
  • Holder binding and blind signing
  • Selective disclosure
  • Zero-knowledge capable signatures where attribute-only proof is required
  • Encrypted, tamper-evident compliance artifacts (“Auditable Nuggets”)
  • Proof validation APIs
  • Revocation and status verification
All components are standards-based and interoperable with existing verification ecosystems.

Product Delivery: APIs, SDKs, and White-Label Options

Nuggets supports flexible deployment models:
  • APIs for credential issuance, proof validation, and compliance artifact generation
  • Mobile SDKs (iOS and Android) including full wallet functionality
  • Modular SDK components (IDV-only, re-verification-only)
  • Skinnable identity flows embedded inside existing applications
  • White-label deployment options for branded identity experiences
All models operate on the same decentralized trust infrastructure.

Deployed Infrastructure Across Regulated Environments

Latpay (Global PSP)

Nuggets implemented decentralized identity infrastructure with Latpay, a global payment service provider operating across more than 150 countries. The deployment enabled:
  • Government ID and biometric verification
  • Issuance of reusable verifiable credentials
  • Encrypted compliance artifacts for audit retention
  • Cross-border usability of verified identity
  • Elimination of centralized passport storage
This demonstrates production-grade, privacy-preserving KYC without centralized identity document warehousing.
  • Designed for supervisory audit and regulatory review through verifiable, encrypted artifacts
  • Interoperates with established verification ecosystems including LexisNexis Risk Solutions (identity verification) and Dun & Bradstreet (business identity)
  • Supports reusable credential models without replacing trusted verification providers
Compliance is achieved through verifiable evidence and controlled retention rather than document accumulation.

Business Outcomes

  • Reduced identity data concentration and breach blast radius
  • Audit-ready proof without document accumulation
  • Faster onboarding and reduced re-verification friction
  • Reusable credentials across products and organizational boundaries
  • Stronger privacy-by-design posture without sacrificing compliance

Integration Model

  • API overlay to existing onboarding and KYC platforms
  • Modular SDK integration within native mobile applications
  • Compatible with IAM, CIAM, OAuth, and OpenID Connect environments
  • Multi-cloud and hybrid deployment support
  • No centralized identity document warehousing required

Frequently Asked Questions

Can KYC be compliant without storing identity documents centrally?
Yes. Compliance depends on verifiable evidence and retention access, not warehousing raw passport scans at scale.
Do you replace LexisNexis or Dun & Bradstreet?
No. Nuggets interoperates with existing verification providers and converts results into reusable, privacy-preserving credentials and encrypted compliance artifacts.
