An EVM-compatible blockchain for identity-centric applications using EIDI, featuring low fees and infrastructure aligned with decentralized identifiers and verifiable credentials standards.
IDChain is a Mainnet, EVM-compatible blockchain focused on decentralized identity, with EIDI as the native currency for gas and fees. Its primary use cases include issuing and verifying digital identities and verifiable credentials, KYC/KYB and compliance attestations, and permissioning/access control for dApps and enterprises. Teams can anchor proofs and credential status on-chain while keeping personal data off-chain, enabling interoperable identity for Web3 and cross-chain applications.
Unlike general-purpose L1s, IDChain is identity-first, offering native registries for identifiers and credential status, trusted issuer frameworks, and selective-disclosure patterns that protect user privacy. It retains full Ethereum tooling compatibility (RPC, MetaMask, Solidity) and is bridge-ready for moving assets and messages to other EVM networks. Key performance metrics (avg gas cost, block speed, TPS, network activity) are not publicly standardized as of Sep 2025; check the official explorer via https://idchain.one/begin/ for current comparative figures.
IDChain uses EIDI as the gas token for transaction fees. You can obtain EIDI by bridging from other chains or purchasing using thirdweb Bridge.
To bridge EIDI to IDChain, connect your wallet to thirdweb bridge, select your source chain, choose the token you want to bridge, select IDChain as the destination, enter the amount, and confirm the transaction. The bridge will handle the cross-chain transfer instantly.
To build on IDChain you can use thirdweb, which provides an easy way to build, monetize and scale your apps, games or agents. You can find detailed guides and documentation on https://portal.thirdweb.com to get started quickly.
To add IDChain to your wallet, you can connect your wallet and click on [Add to Wallet] button at the top of the page. Alternatively, you can add the network manually using the RPC URL and chain details and add it to your wallet's network settings.
To send EIDI on IDChain, ensure your wallet is connected to the IDChain network, enter the recipient's address, specify the amount of EIDI to send, review the gas fee, and confirm the transaction in your wallet.
