Frequently asked questions
What is Openbands?
Openbands connects real people without disclosing their identity. Prove real-world attributes like nationality, age, or company affiliation, add them as badges to your profile, and join authentic gated communities with verified peers—no bots, fakes, or misinformation.
What attributes can I verify?
Currently, you can verify your nationality, age, and company affiliation. There is more to come!
How do badges work?
After proving an attribute using zero-knowledge proofs, a badge is automatically added to your profile. Badges show what you've verified (like "🇺🇸 USA" or "18+") without revealing your actual identity or personal details.
What can people see about me?
Only the badges you choose to display on your profile. For example, if you add a nationality badge, people see your country—not your passport, name, or any other personal information. Everything else stays private.
Why join gated communities?
Gated communities ensure everyone meets certain criteria (like age, nationality, or profession). This creates authentic discussions with verified peers, eliminates bots and fake accounts, and builds trust without sacrificing anonymity.
Is this really anonymous?
Yes. You connect with an EVM wallet, prove your attributes privately, and interact anonymously. No one can see who you are unless you explicitly choose to reveal your identity. Only your verified badges are visible.
