Glossary

Every term these docs rely on, defined in plain language. Skim it once and the rest of the documentation reads faster.

Terms

$PASS

The proposed network token that meters usage, enables staking for throughput, and carries governance weight. Optional — not required to use the API.

Attestation

A portable, on-chain proof that a wallet passed verification. Contains a hash and metadata — never personal data.

Attester key

The on-chain key Passify uses to sign attestations. Lets anyone confirm an attestation came from Passify.

Compliance rule

Per-asset transfer logic (schema, jurisdictions, minimum, holder cap, lock) enforced at mint and transfer time. Stored off-chain and editable without a redeploy.

data_hash

A SHA-256 hash of the KYC result payload. One-way and not reversible to identity data.

KYC

Know Your Customer — the identity-verification process performed by a provider such as Blockpass.

mint_config

A token configuration identifying a specific asset (for example us_real_estate_fund_v1) and its associated rules.

PII

Personally Identifiable Information — names, IDs, documents. Passify never stores or processes PII.

Schema

The type of an attestation (e.g. kyc_individual_v1, kyc_accredited_v1), describing what was verified.

Token-2022

The Solana token standard whose transfer hooks let Passify enforce compliance rules at transfer time.

Transfer hook

A Token-2022 mechanism that calls custom logic during a transfer — here, a compliance-rule check.

Unsigned transaction

A transaction Passify assembles but does not sign. The user signs it in their own wallet, so Passify never moves funds.
