THEO Token

THEO Token for AutheoID & Identity

THEO is the utility token powering AutheoID — Autheo's post-quantum sovereign identity system. AutheoID enables individuals, enterprises, IoT devices, and AI agents to establish verifiable on-chain identities secured by NIST-standard post-quantum cryptography. THEO is used to register identities, issue credentials, and manage identity sovereignty on-chain.

AutheoID is not an add-on — it's a core component of the Autheo Layer-0 OS. Every validator, user, device, and AI agent on the Autheo network has an AutheoID — a self-sovereign identity secured by post-quantum cryptography (Kyber for key exchange, Dilithium for signatures). THEO tokens are used to register new identities, update credentials, and access identity-gated network services.

Unlike traditional centralized identity systems (OAuth, SSO, government IDs) or early blockchain identity attempts (ENS, DID), AutheoID is quantum-resistant from inception. As quantum computing advances, classical ECDSA-based identities become vulnerable. AutheoID uses NIST-standard post-quantum algorithms — ensuring long-term identity security without migration or identity re-registration.

For enterprises and DeFi protocols, AutheoID enables optional on-chain compliance layers. Users can attach verifiable credentials (KYC attestations, jurisdiction proofs, professional certifications) to their AutheoID without exposing underlying personal data — enabling compliant applications that respect user sovereignty. THEO is used to issue, revoke, and verify these credentials on-chain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is AutheoID and how does THEO power it?+

AutheoID is Autheo's post-quantum sovereign identity system — integrated at the Layer-0 OS level. THEO tokens are used to register identities, issue verifiable credentials, and access identity-gated network services.

Why is post-quantum identity important?+

Classical identity cryptography (ECDSA, RSA) is vulnerable to quantum computing attacks. AutheoID uses NIST-standard Kyber, Dilithium, and Falcon algorithms — ensuring user and validator identities remain secure even as quantum computing matures.

Can AutheoID be used for enterprise compliance?+

Yes. AutheoID supports verifiable credentials (KYC attestations, jurisdiction proofs) that can be attached to on-chain identities without exposing underlying personal data — enabling compliant applications built on Autheo that respect user sovereignty.
