To evolve trust in Web3 with a vision to enable users to own their identity network.

Our take

Violet is a provider of privacy-protective compliance and identity infrastructure specifically designed for the decentralized finance (DeFi) industry. Its primary objective is to support DeFi in reaching its full potential as the prevailing financial system of the future.

To facilitate the transition towards a decentralized financial system, the Violet team have developed Mauve, a privacy-protective compliance infrastructure directly integrated into the blockchain. Mauve requires users to undergo rigorous compliance and identity checks, enabling security-conscious individuals to confidently migrate to the world of DeFi.

With recent funding under its belt, Violet is now focused on accelerating the global adoption of Mauve. By combining the advantages of DeFi and traditional finance, Mauve enables crypto investors worldwide to trade with confidence, fostering a global ecosystem where the benefits of decentralized finance can fully be realized.
