Self, a zero-knowledge identity and proof-of-humanity protocol, has raised $9 million in a seed funding round. The investment was led by Greenfield Capital, with participation from SoftBank's Startup Capital Ventures x SBI Fund, Spearhead VC, Verda Ventures, Fireweed Ventures, and several angel investors. Self offers privacy-focused identity verification using zero-knowledge proofs and verifiable credentials, integrating with platforms like Google, Aave, and Velodrome. The protocol supports biometric passports, country IDs, and Indian Aadhaar verification, and is utilized for anti-Covenant airdrops and OFAC-compliant token distribution. In addition to the funding, Self has launched a points program to incentivize users who complete identity verification and engage with partner platforms.
