Violet

Violet Protocol provides privacy-preserving, reusable on-chain compliance and identity infrastructure for decentralized finance (DeFi). Its products — VioletID, Full AML/KYC screening, GeoFencing, and Sybil resistance — let crypto businesses meet regulatory requirements such as anti-money-laundering, sanctions screening, geo-blocking, accredited-investor verification, and proof of unique personhood. Integration is SDK and smart-contract based: Violet issues Ethereum Access Tokens (EATs) — OAuth 2.0-compliant, EIP-712-signed compliance assertions that carry no PII — and maintains the on-chain VioletID Registry that maps wallet addresses to verified compliance statuses, all built on W3C Decentralized Identifier and Verifiable Credential standards.

Violet is profiled on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Company, Compliance, Identity, DeFi, and Blockchain.

Violet’s developer surface includes documentation, developer portal, getting-started guide, API reference, support, signup flow, authentication, and 9 more developer resources.
