The Humanity Protocol community recently came together for an exciting hackathon in Korea, bringing developers, designers, and visionaries under one roof to build a future where identity is verified, private, and uniquely human. The challenge? Solve real problems in networking, dating, and DeFi using Humanity Protocol’s zero-knowledge Proof of Humanity system.
Three standout projects emerged, each proving how powerful a “human layer for Web3” can be.
TrustMeet – Networking You Can Believe In
In a world flooded with fake profiles, bot followers, and shallow endorsements, TrustMeet reimagines professional networking from the ground up.
TrustMeet connects people based on shared goals and interests, not noise or follower counts. New users verify their identity by connecting MetaMask and completing Humanity Protocol’s Human ID check. The result: a zero-knowledge credential that proves they are human, unique, and verified—without revealing personal data.
Key features:
Fake accounts and bot farms are blocked at the door.
Only verified users can join rooms or send connection requests.
Smart contracts track ratings, reviews, and successful hires—turning social capital into real on-chain influence and TM tokens.
Users can swap TM ↔ USDT, access premium features, or launch recruitment and matchmaking rooms all within the app.
TrustMeet brings integrity back to networking—powered end-to-end by Humanity Protocol’s credential APIs.
LoveBeats – Dating Without the Deception
LoveBeats takes on two of online dating’s biggest problems: fake profiles and cold, transactional interactions.
Every user on LoveBeats is a verified human. Sign-up requires a wallet check, a palm-based Human ID scan, and optional KYC. During onboarding, users also receive cryptographic credentials for age, education, and occupation. These live on-chain as private, yes/no attestations—giving matches just enough trust without oversharing.
Other highlights:
Reveal more about yourself only when you choose.
A pulse sync feature adds a fun, real-time “spark” to the matching process.
Third-party validators earn tokens for successful matches and trusted intros.
LoveBeats uses Humanity Protocol to verify every step—making fake accounts unprofitable and giving users control over what they share.
Vyra – DeFi Meets Lottery, Without the Risk
Vyra introduces a novel concept: a deposit interest lottery. Users deposit into a shared pool where the principal is never lost—but the earned interest becomes a prize.
Imagine: dozens of users deposit funds, the pool generates yield, and one lucky participant wins the interest while everyone keeps their original deposit.
Vyra blends DeFi and gamification, creating a fun, low-risk experience. With Humanity Protocol integrated, each participant is verified as a unique human—eliminating the risk of multi-accounting or manipulation.
Building a Thriving Dev Ecosystem
Each of these projects proves that Humanity Protocol is more than an identity layer—it’s a foundation for trust, privacy, and authenticity in decentralized systems. From safer networking to dating with dignity and fairer DeFi games, the future of Web3 is being built—one verified human at a time.
Thank you to everyone who participated in the Korea Hackathon. We’re just getting started.
