Revolutionizing Education with Polyversity, BBN, and Privado.ID
Imagine a global classroom where students, regardless of location or background, can securely access verified educational resources, collaborate with peers, and engage in cutting-edge learning. This is Polyversity—a decentralized educational metaverse powered by Bharat Blockchain Network (BBN) and integrated with the BBN-ID & powered by Privado ID.
Traditional education systems face inefficiencies like credential fraud, data breaches, and limited global access. Polyversity transforms this landscape. With plans to onboard 140 universities and over 100,000 students in the initial phases, it’s set to become India’s largest blockchain-powered educational ecosystem, built on transparency and trust.
Through Decentralized Identities (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs), students gain secure control over their academic records, eliminating barriers in accreditation while enhancing privacy and efficiency. For institutions, Polyversity opens the door to global collaboration in a decentralized metaverse driven by trust and innovation.
This isn’t just about solving problems—it’s about reimagining education as accessible, equitable, and future-ready. Together with Privado ID and BBN-ID, Polyversity is unlocking opportunities and reshaping the future of learning.
The vision behind this initiative is to create a decentralized, secure, and privacy-first educational ecosystem, where students, institutions, and stakeholders collaborate seamlessly in a trust-driven environment. By integrating Polyversity, the Bharat Blockchain Network (BBN), BBN-ID, and Privado ID, the platform aims to:
- Empower Students: Allow students to control their personal data and academic records, ensuring secure and equitable access to global opportunities.
- Transform Institutions: Streamline accreditation, credentialing, and enrollment processes while fostering collaboration in a decentralized metaverse.
- Revolutionize the Ecosystem: Build trust, transparency, and scalability, aligning with the principles of Web3 and addressing the challenges of a digital-first world
This vision drives the transformation of education into a secure, inclusive, and forward-thinking ecosystem, aligning with the principles of Web3 and decentralized technology to address the challenges of the modern world.
Privado ID and Bharat Blockchain Network (BBN-ID) together bringing value addition in the education sector
In an era where education demands digital agility and global accessibility, Privado ID and BBN-ID redefine how institutions and individuals establish trust and collaboration.
For students, this integration offers a seamless pathway to verified, blockchain-secured credentials that are universally recognized and impossible to tamper with. This ensures lifelong portability of achievements, opening doors to global opportunities and reducing administrative friction in academic and professional pursuits.
For universities, the adoption of BBN-ID provides a cutting-edge solution for decentralized accreditation, allowing institutions to establish credibility while streamlining the issuance and management of Verifiable Credentials (VCs). By leveraging Privado ID, universities secure their digital identities and become trusted entities within a blockchain ecosystem, fostering trust among stakeholders.
Third parties, such as employers, scholarship providers, or academic reviewers, benefit from instant, real-time credential validation, eliminating the inefficiencies of traditional verification processes. The immutable nature of blockchain ensures authenticity, saving time and resources while building confidence in the credentials presented.
Together, Privado ID and BBN-ID enable a borderless, transparent, and efficient educational ecosystem. They not only enhance the experience for students and institutions but also bridge the gap between academia and industry, laying the foundation for a truly collaborative and future-ready education system.
Technical workflow and phased implementation
Phase 1: Registration and onboarding of universities to Polyversity
The journey begins with universities and institutions registering on the platform:
1. Registration Phase
- Institutions register and generate their Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) using BBN-ID, a cutting-edge identity management solution.
- Metadata and public keys are securely stored on a public permissioned blockchain (BBN), ensuring privacy, security, and tamper-proof identity management.
2. Credential Issuance
- The Accreditation Body issues cryptographically signed Verifiable Credentials (VCs) for registered institutions.
- These credentials are stored in the user devices, establishing a secure and transparent foundation for institutional identity.
3. Onboarding to Polyversity
Through Phase 1, universities are not only onboarded but also gain verifiable credentials that form the backbone of their presence in Polyversity.

With the institutions firmly established, Polyversity shifts focus toward empowering students: Accredited universities transition into the role of credential issuers, leveraging their DIDs and Verifiable Credentials.
- Institutions issue cryptographically signed VCs to students, securely stored in user wallets. These credentials serve as a portable and tamper-proof record of students’ academic achievements and affiliations.
This phase enables a decentralized and verifiable credentialing system that directly benefits students, creating trust and transparency across the ecosystem.
