[PRESS RELEASE \u2013 Santa Monica, CA, December 12th, 2024]<\/strong><\/p>\n

The deal brings together industry leaders and sets the stage for the next era of decentralized digital identity<\/p>\n

Dentity<\/a> is proud to announce the acquisition of Trinsic<\/a>\u2019s decentralized identity assets, setting the stage for a dramatic expansion of Web3 identity solutions. These assets represents advanced decentralized identity infrastructure in the world, having enabled thousands of developers to build user-controlled identity features into their applications. With this move, Dentity aims to strengthen its position as a global leader in decentralized identity.<\/p>\n

\u201cTrinsic\u2019s platform revolutionizes how consumers control and share their personal data,\u201d said Jeff Schwartz, Founder and CEO of Dentity. \u201cThis acquisition brings us one step closer to creating a safer, more secure digital future, where individuals are fully in charge of their identity \u2014 and can potentially earn from it, not Big Tech.\u201d<\/p>\n

Riley Hughes, co-founder of Trinsic, shared, \u201cDentity stands out as the most successful product built on our decentralized identity platform. Their consumer scale and impressive ecosystem of partners will allow Trinsic\u2019s technology to touch millions more, making Dentity the perfect place for this platform to reach its potential.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dentity has joined Trinsic\u2019s Identity Acceptance Network, which enables seamless identity verification through digital IDs in web3 wallets like Dentity, mobile driver\u2019s licenses, and eID apps. Trinsic\u2019s network gives 100 million consumers instant access to Dentity\u2019s products and ecosystem partners.<\/p>\n

The Need for Digital Identity<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a world where fraud, online scams, and identity theft are on the rise, digital identity offers a powerful solution. In fact, online grooming crimes have surged 89%, and romance scams are up 160%. This explosion of fraud highlights a major challenge \u2014 anonymity online is both a tool for bad actors and a barrier to trust.<\/p>\n

Decentralized identity is the key to unlocking trust online. It empowers consumers to securely share only what\u2019s necessary, whether they\u2019re buying, selling, dating, or participating in the growing Web3 economy. For the first time, individuals \u2014 not third parties \u2014 control their data, cutting out the middlemen who earns from consumer information.<\/p>\n

The Timing<\/strong><\/p>\n

Consumers are increasingly dissatisfied with how their data is controlled by large tech companies. Over 75% of people don\u2019t trust Big Tech with their personal information, and they\u2019re demanding more control over their digital lives. Gartner predicts that by 2026, 500 million smartphone users will regularly use a digital identity wallet \u2014 a testament to the growing need for decentralized digital identity solutions.<\/p>\n

Combining Trinsic\u2019s powerful identity technology with Dentity\u2019s consumer apps and distribution channels accelerates the adoption of reusable, verified digital identities \u2014 helping to combat fraud, streamline online interactions, and give users the tools to manage their data.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe convergence of rising online fraud and consumer demand for more privacy-driven solutions makes this the perfect time for Dentity to scale,\u201d stated Schwartz<\/p>\n

A Multi-Billion Dollar Opportunity <\/strong><\/p>\n

The market for digital identity is projected to reach $325 billion by 2027, and with this acquisition, Dentity is uniquely positioned to capture its share. The acquisition not only unlocks new growth opportunities but also helps Dentity and its partners scale faster and reach a wider range of developers looking to integrate decentralized identity into their platforms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe future of Web3 and digital identity is about empowering individuals, reducing online fraud, and making the internet a more trustworthy place. We\u2019re building a future where digital trust is easy, secure, and owned by the individual.\u201d<\/p>\n
