- 0xPass
Participated · Seed · Sep 2023
0xPass provides infrastructure that lets developers build multiple authentication methods into non-custodial crypto wallets, aiming to make wallet login as convenient as web2 counterparts. The company uses multi-party computation (MPC) to shard private keys across network nodes and combines MPC algorithms with secure enclaves via its Passport Protocol network to maintain a non-custodial design. Incubated at the Stanford Blockchain Club, the team positions 0xPass as a flexible alternative for developers who want programmable authentication and transaction rules. The product targets developers needing customizable authentication flows or wallet infrastructure and plans to monetize by charging customers for access to its key management system based on usage. 0xPass emphasizes developer control and programmability compared with traditional MPC setups that split key shares between users and service back ends. The company also notes regulatory uncertainty around wallet infrastructure as a principal macro risk.
