A part of the Midnight LATAM Hackathon, KYC Midnight is a privacy-preserving KYC attestation dApp on the Midnight network. It verifies user eligibility—such as age and country—using zero-knowledge proofs without revealing personal data on-chain. The project ships with both a web UI and a CLI, includes admin-managed policy controls, and is testnet-ready—making it a practical template for compliant, privacy-first onboarding flows.
The open-source code is available on GitHub, encouraging collaboration and further development.
