πŸ”How It Works

Know Your Issuer (KYI) links a token contract to a verified legal entity and its controlling wallet. It turns issuer verification into a repeatable, machine-readable process that exchanges, wallets, regulators, and apps can trust.

KYI is straightforward for issuers to complete. It is rigorous enough for institutional compliance workflows.


Step-by-Step Process

1

Start the KYI application

The issuer starts a KYI submission from the Bluprynt dashboard.

The submission begins with:

  • Asset name and ticker

  • Blockchain network

  • Token contract or mint address

  • Wallets with mint, freeze, pause, or admin authority

2

Submit issuer details

The issuer provides the business information tied to the asset.

This includes:

  • Legal entity name

  • Jurisdiction of incorporation

  • Registration number

  • Website and legal address

  • Supporting company documents

3

Complete KYB review

Bluprynt reviews the submitted business data and company records.

The review confirms:

  • The entity exists and is active

  • The entity is tied to the asset

  • The submitting party can act for the business

4

Verify the controlling wallet

Bluprynt issues a signature challenge to the wallet listed as the controlling authority.

The issuer signs the challenge with a wallet that:

  • Deployed the token, or

  • Holds mint, freeze, pause, or admin privileges

Wallet verification can be completed through a wallet extension, CLI flow, or HSM workflow.

5

Submit for approval

Once the business review and wallet verification are complete, the issuer submits the asset for final review.

The application moves into a pending state until approval.

6

Generate the KYI attestation

After approval, Bluprynt issues a KYI attestation that binds:

  • The verified legal entity

  • The verified controlling wallet

  • The associated token address

The attestation is published on-chain and made available through Bluprynt surfaces and the KYI API.


Attestation Format

KYI attestations are structured for compliance tooling. Each record includes:

Field
Description

Token Address

The verified token contract

Wallet Address

The wallet that completed the verification

Legal Entity

Name, jurisdiction, registration number

Issue Date

Timestamp of attestation

Status

Active, expired, or revoked

Related Disclosures

Linked Smart Disclosures attestations (optional)

These attestations are designed to work with Ethereum, Solana, and broader attestation-based compliance systems.


Revocation and Expiration

  • Automatic expiration: KYI attestations can carry a defined validity period

  • Manual revocation: Bluprynt or an authorized party can revoke an attestation if legal status or wallet control changes

  • Tamper detection: Invalid signatures or mismatched wallets can flag an asset as unauthenticated


KYI makes token provenance verifiable. That gives platforms, users, and regulators a trusted way to identify who stands behind an asset.
