> "Why are we still treating user identity as a sunk cost?

User acquisition and KYC checks are currently treated as inevitable cash burns for early-stage platforms. Every time a new user onboards, the platform pays a third-party provider to verify them, stores the sensitive data, and hopes the user sticks around long enough to generate a return on that verification cost. The current model is broken, but we are finally seeing a shift toward privacy-preserving identity layers that flip this dynamic. Instead of treating verification as a sunk cost, platforms are utilizing zero-knowledge proofs to turn identity into a revenue stream. When a user verifies their identity (like KYC or accreditation) on Platform A, that credential becomes portable. If that user then goes to Platform B, Platform B doesn't need to run a fresh, expensive background check. They just ping the credential. Platform A gets paid a fee for being the initial trusted verifier, Platform B saves money on onboarding, and the user’s raw data is never exposed."
