🔆 What is going in at BrightID?
🌀Aura is finally almost here!

For years we have been building a gamified system to sit on top of the BrightID infrastructure and it is nearly ready for the world to begin using. Aura will create a decentralized social validation layer where anyone in the world can help evaluate which unique humans should be BrightID verified.

Beyond BrightID verification, Aura could be used to expertly evaluate all sorts of domains and important questions in a decentralized way. 

The gitbook is the best place to learn more. [brightid.gitbook.io/aura](https://brightid.gitbook.io/aura)

More details about BrightID can also be found in our monthly update posts at [brightid.mirror.xyz](https://brightid.mirror.xyz/)
Some amazing projects are already integrating with BrightID.

Will your project be next?


🔆 What is BrightID?
BrightID is building an identity lego that allows users to prove to applications that they only exist once in any given system.


What if you could always prove you were a real unique user?
It’s easy in the real world to ensure you’re dealing with a unique or a specific person, but imagine how many systems could be improved or made possible if every user or account could prove they only exist once as we transition to the digital era?


* Digital voting and governance - including quadratic voting, liquid democracy, and signaling
* Truly universal income or airdrop distributions payable to literally everyone
* Public-goods funding allocation - trust minimized and collusion resistant thanks to MACI
* Social media without millions of bots polluting the discourse
* Credit systems for under-collateralized DeFi
* And so much more...


🔆 How does it work?
BrightID is creating a giant pseudonymous social graph of people all around the world. Users can make private, cryptographically secure connections to people they know, using a smartphone app. This pseudonymous connection data is shared among a decentralized group of computer nodes that store and analyze the public social graph. The nodes of the network determine and verify the likely uniqueness of each account, based on its interconnectivity with other accounts. The user can then use their BrightID verification to prove to any integrated system that they have one and only one account. The potential integrations are endless.


🔆 Where will my contributions go?
BrightID Main DAO is a LAO (a DAO with a legal wrapper) that stewards centralized pieces until they can be decentralized, such as the app registry, website, and app store entries. It also has stewardship over grant and sponsorship income, and functions as a non-profit. It has been committed to BrightID’s core mission and funded the core team since its inception in Feb 2020.
100% of contributed funds will go to BMAIN DAO.


🔆 Bright DAO!
[Bright DAO](https://gardens.1hive.org/#/xdai/garden/0x1e2d5fb385e2eae45bd42357e426507a63597397/) pulls in many contributors from the community to grow BrightID at a faster pace. Using the gardens DAO format pioneered by 1Hive, contributors can create their own proposals and receive their own funding in $BRIGHT community governance tokens.
