Bridge Identity Summer 2021 Update

We are excited to announce the current mobile release and future planned releases for the Bridge Identity Platform in 2021. If you are not familiar with the Bridge Identity platform, please read What is the Bridge Identity Platform? to learn more.

Bridge Mobile Passport has been accepted and released to the public on the iOS App Store for both iPhone and iPad devices. Version 1.1 marks a major milestone in supporting portable mobile identity for all users across both Android and iOS devices. In addition to cross-platform support, Bridge Mobile Passport also addressed usability issues, as well as several security enhancements and bug fixes.

At Bridge, we are often quiet about updates as we’re busy building and working to identify real-world use cases and platforms to adopt to expand the case for the Bridge Identity Platform. We have several projects in flight that we are tentatively looking to release later in 2021, so we wanted to share some of them with the community.

The Bridge Identity Platform is constantly evolving the types of verifications and claims that can be issued. As real-world use cases arise, we are always looking to address the needs by adding support for additional claim types that can be used in the Bridge Passport and Bridge Mobile Passport by our users.

COVID-19 Vaccination Verification
Users will be able to have their COVID-19 Vaccination documentation verified and use the verified claim in their Bridge Passport to prove their vaccination status.

Photo Verification
A key to real-world use of digital identity in-person is demonstrating the user with the Bridge Passport and associated claims is actually the individual presenting the passport. Users will be able store a verified photo in their Bridge Passport to present along with their claims to prove visual identity as well for in-person transactions.

Phone Number Verification
A simple but overlooked verification is phone number verification. This can be especially helpful in online fraud prevention and allow users to verify an additional piece of information. This verification and claim type will be available on the platform as well.

ERC-721 NFT Support
An interesting phenomenon in the last year was the NFT boom. As we watched this unfold, we saw a use case for Bridge Identity emerging. We wanted to make it easy for users to not only store their NFT assets in their Bridge Passport, but we also saw where we could help enhance the security around the management and transfer of these assets. Using the Bridge Identity Platform to manage and transfer, users can be sure of the identity of the sender and recipient for each NFT transfer to prevent any transfer to bad actors.

Launch BRDG BSC-20 Hybrid Token on Binance Smart Chain
The BRDG Token is already a hybrid token that can be swapped between NEO and Ethereum. Users will now have the option of swapping and using BRDG token across all three supported chains. This will drastically lower transaction costs and enable greater access to BRDG token for our users. Another benefit will be the greater reach into the DeFi space by leveraging decentralized exchanges like Pancake Swap, only available on BSC.

Launch Bridge Identity Platform on Binance Smart Chain
All Bridge smart contracts will be implemented to enable Bridge Users to publish their digital identity for use by any decentralized applications on Binance Smart Chain for verification.

Stay tuned as we progress through 2021 for more updates and releases!
