BNB Chain Spotlight: Lifeform

Your Brand-New Web3 Identity Awaits

We're kicking off December's Project Spotlight series with Lifeform, an innovative and ambitious NFT project creating hyper-realistic avatars. Lifeform's avatars are customizable and cross-platform, allowing you to adopt an entirely new virtual persona in Web3 and beyond. Read ahead to learn more.

Describe Lifeform for those unfamiliar with it. What's your vision and mission?

Lifeform has developed a cross-platform hyper-realistic 3D virtual human avatar creation system that uses NFTs to enable people to manage and retain multiple zero-knowledge pseudonymous digital identities through a decentralized identifier (DID) solution. Specifically, Lifeform will enable them to come into the world of metaverse and Web3 applications by simplifying the creation, usage, and management of virtual identities - their virtual human avatars.

These ultra-high definition avatars can not only be used in all major Web2 video-enabled collaboration systems such as Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Discord, TikTok, Instagram, etc., but also serve as the users’ logins for all dApps in the Web3 environment, smoothly bridging the transition from Web2 to Web3 ecosystems for new users

Lifeform's vision is making it possible to bring the next billion users to join the Web3 revolution.

When was the idea behind Lifeform and what led to it?

When the concept of Web3 was brought to everyone’s mind for the first time and different metaverse worlds came to the view of us.

Our team realized that Web2 ecosystems are migrating to Web3, and real-world experience is being augmented by that of the metaverse at our early stage of development. Underpinning both of these transitions is the unmistakable deviation away from the crypto mania that has been plaguing the world so far -- hyper financialization. Instead, both of these categories of crypto adoption center around one quintessential mandate: the user experience that is tragically missing from the dApps that exist today.

It is with clear recognition and focus of this urgency, and the specific opportunities with providing the most convenient, useful, and universal Decentralized Identification (DID) solutions, that Project Lifeform is founded.

What are the main advantages of Lifeform for users, compared to a similar project from a mainstream financial market?

We are witnessing the rapid expansion of the Web3 ecosystem to include a myriad of applications covering a wide range of use cases including work, social, and entertainment, and finance. One of the most promising areas enabled by the disruptive technologies will be the metaverse, in which friends, family, and new acquaintances will be able to join each other to work, play, and socialize.

We see that the Web2 era username and password identity regime as grossly inadequate to support such dynamic and immersive experiences. We envision that billions of users rely on animated virtual human avatars that not only act as their login credentials to all applications but also show their personalities in interactions, in both the Web2 and Web3 worlds.

We also envision the Web3 stage of the internet being a network of carrying and exchanging personal values, in which identity, NFT, and DeFi are all intertwined. We see DID solutions for consumers, organizations, and developers playing a critical role on such a stage.

What is the security strategy of your project?

All of our contracts have been audited and are multisig. All Lifeform staff will have a security test before work and monthly tests .

Let's say I want to start using Lifeform. Where do I start? Where can I find some how-to guides?

You can download it on https://lifeform.cc/.

We have detailed tutorials on our Website (below the download button), and in our Discord community.

Lifeform can be used in both Web2 and Web3 to facilitate users logging in and generating new forms of DID. Web3 users can easily connect their crypto wallet to login. For users coming to the Web3 world for the first time, lifeform also provides an integrated login method by using Email/Social Account verification.

This ecosystem has already started expanding with incubation projects that leverage Lifeform’s technology and marketing network to promote virtual human avatars.
