Verify Identity

Link an external address (Ethereum or Solana) to your Make ID by signing a deterministic challenge message. The claim is verified on-chain and stored in consensus state.

How verification works

Ethereum (ETH_ADDRESS)

  1. You sign the challenge makechain:verify:<mid> using EIP-191 personal_sign
  2. The validator recovers the signer address from the signature using secp256k1 + keccak256
  3. If the recovered address matches the address field, the verification is accepted

Solana (SOL_ADDRESS)

  1. You sign the challenge makechain:verify:<mid> with your Solana keypair
  2. The validator verifies the Ed25519 signature directly — the Solana address is the public key
  3. If the signature is valid, the verification is accepted

Removal

Verifications are a 2P set. Submit VERIFICATION_REMOVE to unlink an address. On a timestamp tie between add and remove, remove wins.
