IDENTITY-NATIVE LAYER 1 IN DEVELOPMENT

Built for
continuity.

Your identity is more than a key.
Infrastructure for a world that cannot afford to lose access.

Vayos brings persistent accounts, verifiable identity status and controlled recovery into one Layer 1, designed with institutional operations in mind.

VΛYOSBUILT FOR CONTINUITY
01 / 06One identity. Built to last.

A persistent identity with a unique, human-readable username.

Purpose-built. Independently sovereign.Powered by Cosmos SDK + CometBFT ↗
01 / THE NETWORK

An account that
moves forward with you.

Keys can change. Your on-chain identity should not have to. Vayos separates the account from the key that controls it.

INTERACTIVE CONCEPT

One identity.
A different key.

Explore how a stable account can retain its address and assets while an authorized recovery changes its controller.

Illustration only. No wallet connection or on-chain transaction.

01 / IDENTITY

Human-readable.
Protocol-native.

Unique usernames map to persistent identities, while technical blockchain addresses remain available underneath.

Implemented · development network
02 / VERIFICATION

Verification status.
Not personal documents.

On-chain credentials record issuer, status and validity. Private document verification is a separate service still to be built.

Protocol implemented · synthetic KYC tests
03 / RECOVERY

Access restored.
Continuity retained.

Opt-in recovery combines authorized attestations, a waiting period and cancellation controls before a new key takes over.

Implemented · validation in progress
02 / DESIGNED FOR REAL OPERATIONS

Institutional needs.
Native building blocks.

Infrastructure designed around responsibility, access and operational boundaries, not just transactions.

01

Institutions & treasuries

Separate operational roles, bounded fund allocations and multisignature authorization for controlled treasury workflows.

02

Wallets & custody

Build account experiences around durable identity and key replacement, with explicit recovery policies.

03

Fintech & applications

Use readable identities and verifiable credential status as primitives for future financial and enterprise services.

04

Builders & validators

Extend a sovereign Cosmos SDK chain with familiar tooling, transparent protocol rules and purpose-built modules.

THE VAYOS PRINCIPLE

Built around identity.
Designed for continuity.

People, teams and keys change. The account should remain. Vayos is designed to keep identity and assets connected to a persistent account, with clear permissions and a controlled path to restore access.
03 / THE VAY ECONOMY

A finite supply.
A defined purpose.

A 1 billion VAY allocation framework, with separate reserves for network rewards, development, ecosystem growth and distribution.

TOTAL ALLOCATION1,000,000,000VAY

Fixed-supply policy in the current implementation. Protocol changes remain possible through future upgrades.

TRANSACTION FEE SPLIT

RewardsTreasuryStaking reserve

Applies to transaction fees, not the amount transferred.

ALLOCATIONVAY / SHARE

Sale allocations are not evidence of funds raised. No token price, return, listing or liquidity is guaranteed.

04 / BUILDING WITH INTENT

Progress, without
the promises.

Vayos is in development. A local devnet validates the foundations; production readiness requires independent operation and rigorous review.

CURRENT FOUNDATION

Protocol & devnet

  • Identity and stable accounts
  • Token allocations and vesting
  • Role-separated multisig controls
  • Explorer and recovery workflows

Local development deployment. Not a public testnet or mainnet.

NEXT VALIDATION

Public testnet readiness

  • Independent validator operators
  • Recovery and failure testing
  • Monitoring and operational runbooks
  • Security review and audits

Planned work. No launch date is committed.

FUTURE EXTENSIONS

Institutional tooling

  • Private identity verification service
  • Scoped keys and organization accounts
  • Batch payments and mandates
  • Selective disclosure research

Proposed capabilities, not currently delivered.

A FEW IMPORTANT DISTINCTIONS

Clear by design.

Is Vayos a token on another blockchain?+

No. Vayos is being developed as a sovereign Layer 1 using Cosmos SDK and CometBFT. VAY is its native asset.

Does KYC make accounts anonymous?+

No. Personal documents should not be stored on the public chain, but credential metadata and transactions can still be linkable. The current work does not provide anonymity or zero-knowledge identity.

Can anyone recover an account?+

No. Recovery is opt-in and subject to its configured authorization, waiting period and cancellation rules. Compromised issuers or signers remain a security risk.

Is the network ready for institutional funds?+

Not yet. Current development and local tests are not a substitute for independent audits, distributed operations, production custody and any required legal or regulatory review.
