Topic: Proof Of Humanity (Read 230 times)
I don't know if Proof Of Humanity can be worthy or not on technology blockchain in the future, but if I remember there's on "Announcements (Altcoins)" some project already show up with proposal kind of this (requires humans and living things for participants), and someone come up mention like this "It can be a slavery where peoples and living things do that forever".
In short Proof of Humanity have lots of flaws and it is exploitable if not done properly. I also believe the government statistics office is also needed for this to work properly since it needs to tally entries. Besides we need to embrace the KYC system which many crypto users frown upon. There is no way we can prove someone's identity without submitting government-issued identity documents.
No, we don't need any government statistics, and we don't need to use any KYC system.We can prove that we are unique humans and be pseudo-anonymous with passing Turing tests in something like Idena https://idena.io/
Crypto Identity is something that will have great value in near future as better form of digital identity.

I still consider KYC to be risky or SMS to be unreliable so proof of humanity will never be a real concept because it is really hard to achieve. We live in a digital world and we require digital proofs, when you make it about real life and real humans that becomes something much more riskier and people would probably stay away from it.
There was a currency who wanted to make a proof of humanity with KYC and asked people to provide ID and pictures and so forth just like how the exchanges and casinos are asking for KYC, same data but they would basically airdrop to those people the tokens they were promised. What happened was people would basically get these information of everyone they could get their hands on and still collect all the money themselves and sold those, the token failed miserably. So proof of humanity is a good idea but can't be executed properly.

Or you could simply use an identity scheme that identifies people uniquely without de-anonymizing them or violating their privacy in anyway. With that, no single person ever knows the real identity of ID owners even when they go through kyc process. You could tie the owners decentralized Reputation to their IDs to make the whole network safer.
Unique identification scheme that is fully control, and only known by their owners will save decentralized networks alot of troubles in the future
There are some concerns, imagine your identity getting banned by mistake or by abuse and you can't make a new one.

I'm just thinking, captcha with blockchain? xD.
The concept wants to solved about identity & multi-account problem went the KYC still not enough to solve all of this.
But still, need a lot re-thinking about these, especially a voting system did the registry identity was upload by the same person or different people.

What do you think about Proof of Humanity concept?
There are so many use cases in real world, and some of them are mentioned in this video by Clément Lesaege:
