In today's digital world, we're forced to maintain multiple identities across different platforms and blockchains. Consider Sarah, who juggles between her Google-authenticated business email, bank logins, and multiple crypto wallets for DeFi investments. This fragmentation isn't just inconvenient – it's a barrier to seamless digital experiences.

The Problem:

• Web2 users manage dozens of logins across different services

• Crypto users maintain separate wallets for each blockchain

• Businesses struggle to bridge traditional and blockchain systems

• Users need different tokens just to pay for transactions

Enter Cross Context Identities (CCI) by Demos Network – a universal identity layer spanning both traditional web services and blockchain networks. Think of it as a digital passport recognized everywhere while maintaining bank-grade security.

Leveraging the Demos Network, CCI offers the ability to link identities to create a unified digital authentication system. Linked identities will have the ability to have fine grained control of identity privacy, enabling multiple identities to operate as one, initially across Web3 with Web2 Identities being added very soon.

Real-World Applications:

1. Financial Services: Traditional financial services like payments can adopt crypto payment rails with users enjoying a SSO experience whilst merchants receive payments in any currency. Blended financial services become possible with TradFi and DeFi being able to integrate systems under a single verified identity.

2. Gaming & Digital Assets: Gamers like Alex can use items earned in traditional games within Web3 environments, with achievements and assets following them across chains and ecosystems.

3. Enterprise Solutions: Companies can gradually adopt blockchain features without disrupting existing authentication systems, making Web3 integration natural and seamless.

4. Social Media: Creators can maintain unified presences across traditional and blockchain-based platforms, managing a unified reputation and receive global payments.

How Partners will Use Cross Context Identities

Single Sign On transformed Web2 by eliminating password fatigue. Now imagine a truly universal identity system that seamlessly bridges both digital worlds—connecting your Web2 accounts and Web3 wallets under a single, decentralized, user-controlled authentication layer.

As a fully decentralized solution you are in complete control of your digital footprint while enabling frictionless movement between traditional platforms and blockchain ecosystems— you decide the privacy settings of your credentials all without surrendering custody of your data or assets.

Demos combines Cross-Context Identities with Cross-Chain Swap capabilities, allowing retailers to accept crypto payments while receiving their preferred currency. Users can pay in their currency of choice, with the conversion happening automatically.

Additionally, linked identities enable frictionless P2P transfers via social integrations, wallet addresses, or email—simplifying the entire P2P payment process.

Reputation systems exist throughout both traditional finance (credit scores, loan approvals) and Web3 (DeFi applications, creator influence). However, these systems remain siloed—Web3 wallet users lack ways to leverage their digital reputation for traditional loans, while community managers struggle to identify and reward valuable members across fragmented platforms.

CCI solves this by creating the ability of scoring individuals across both Web2 and Web3 ecosystems for various use cases, creating a unified reputation system.

Demos provides a versatile verification framework with applications across digital ecosystems. For example with creative content, it can enable transparent rights management with clear ownership verification, licensing terms, and permitted uses, even for assets that sit on Web2—giving creators control while offering users immediate clarity on legitimate interactions with digital works.

With the deployment of ZK technology in the future, Demos will deliver private verification without exposing personal data. Only eligibility confirmation is shared while sensitive details remain confidential, safeguarding user privacy.

These use cases demonstrate how a single decentralized verification system can address multiple trust challenges while keeping users in control of their data.

Technical Implementation:

The CCI system uses a secure registry on the Demos blockchain that maps different public identifiers to their respective contexts. Private keys and sensitive credentials remain stored locally through wallets and dApps, ensuring maximum security while enabling seamless cross-context operations.

Future Impact: CCI isn't just solving today's identity challenges – it's here to enable tomorrow's innovation. A singular identity solution will enable new ecosystems to flourish and drive new value from digital experiences now and into the future.

Roadmap for CCI

• We are pleased to announce CCI is now available for all Demos supported chains, enabling Developers to harness this unique capability across all of Web3

• Our development team will integrate the first Web2 identities at the end of March

• Our Redacted Application will be released in April that will demonstrate the unique power of CCI to the world

• Our motto at Demos is show, don’t tell. As we move to Alpha phase at the latter end of March, CCI will be used to drive our Alpha incentive campaign

Take note, the next phase of the internet has arrived, unified Identities are the major blocker to widespread adoption of blockchain, alongside Demos Cross-Chain interoperability and Web2 integration technology, CCI offers a step change in how we use, embed and integrate Web3 into our daily lives.
