Moca Network Identity House Hackathon

A Breakthrough in DeFi Lending

We're thrilled to announce that CredZK has secured 2nd place at Moca Network's Identity House hackathon! This achievement validates our revolutionary approach to bridging traditional finance and DeFi through privacy-preserving financial verification.

The Missing Piece for DeFi Adoption

CredZK enables crypto undercollateralized lending by allowing users to prove real-world creditworthiness without exposing sensitive financial data through zero-knowledge proofs. This breakthrough finally bridges the gap between traditional finance and DeFi, enabling users to verify income, employment, and credit history while maintaining complete privacy.

Built in Just 5 Days

Our proof of concept was developed in an intense 5-day sprint during the hackathon, showcasing the power and potential of zero-knowledge technology in financial services. The solution demonstrates how traditional financial credentials can be verified on-chain without compromising user privacy or security.

Key Innovation Features

  • 🔒 Privacy-first verification using zero-knowledge proofs
  • 💰 Eliminates expensive traditional API costs
  • 🌐 Real zkTLS bank connections for authentic data
  • ⚡ Instant verification without document uploads
  • 🛡️ Cryptographic proof of financial credentials
  • 🔗 Seamless DeFi protocol integration

Industry Recognition

The hackathon featured innovative builders pushing the boundaries of identity in Web3, with CredZK standing out among solutions from teams working on verified spending proofs, credential-powered trading, and role-based AI agent access. Our focus on financial privacy and undercollateralized lending resonated strongly with judges and the broader DeFi community.

What's Next

This hackathon win is just the beginning. We're actively developing CredZK into a full production platform that could unlock billions in DeFi lending by making undercollateralized loans accessible to mainstream users. The technology we've demonstrated has the potential to be the missing piece that enables mass DeFi adoption.
