Illuminated is a decentralized Marketplace for citizens to discover, join, or launch their Startup Cities. We’re bringing the world's most powerful Startup Cities to you.

Identity:

Across the web3 landscape, IDs are often limited to siloed ecosystems. With the introduction of Universal ID, Illuminated disrupts this norm.

Web3 ID aggregation is a key feature of the marketplace, users can now gain easy access to the marketplace by simply signing up with their ENS domain name to authenticate themselves. We aim at delivering Universal ID to unlimited users by verifying and onboarding their data and reputation score into our system, building a strong network of free users.

Core-features:

• Multi-Citizenship Card: at Illuminated we simplify access to multiple countries at once through a one-time onboarding process, eliminating the need for repetitive KYC requirements and expediting the sign-up process.
• Universal ID: a unified ID for multiple addresses. Users simply link their pre-existing IDs to authenticate themselves and generate a reputation score for easy access.
• Managed Marketplace: with our Governance and ID tooling, Reputation System, and Interactive Servers/Channels for Startup Cities, we can provide a set of solutions that will enable the users to host a full ecosystem for their Startup City or implement it across different solutions in the Web3 sphere.
