Face-based wallet creation (no seed phrase)
Traditional wallets rely on seed phrases that are hard to remember, easy to lose, and often the cause of permanent asset loss. Solident replaces this outdated model with biometric and pattern-based wallet creation.
How it works
Enrollment
The user scans their face once during setup.
The system generates a biometric template, encrypted instantly.
Pattern Setup
The user draws a pattern on a 3x3 grid with at least four connected points.
The pattern is converted into a secure hash and stored.
Wallet Generation
A wallet is created and cryptographically tied to the user’s face and pattern factors.
No seed phrase is exposed, written down, or stored in plain text.
Security Advantages
No seed phrases: Eliminates the single biggest source of user error and loss.
Two-factor foundation: Wallet access is protected by face + pattern, not just one factor.
Local-first process: Face data is never uploaded, only the encrypted template is used.
Recovery ready: An encrypted recovery key allows wallet restoration if a device is lost.
"You don’t need to write your wallet on paper. Your face and pattern are your permanent keys."
Why it matters
For users: Onboarding becomes instant and stress-free. No more fear of losing access due to a misplaced phrase.
For DeFi adoption: Removes one of the biggest barriers for newcomers, making decentralized finance accessible to everyone.
For security: Eliminates common attack vectors like phishing seed phrases, screenshot leaks, or unsafe backups.
In Solident, creating a wallet is as natural as looking at your screen and drawing a simple pattern. Simple for the user, but cryptographically secure under the hood.
