What is the Share Ledger?
ShareLedger is the foundational layer of the ShareRing ecosystem, designed to enable on-chain reputation and off-chain identity management through decentralized identifiers (DiDs). As an Inter-Blockchain Communication (IBC) enabled, permissioned public network within the Cosmos blockchain ecosystem, ShareLedger offers developers a robust platform for building identity-gated services.
The Building Blocks of Web3 Identity
Verifiable Credentials (W3C)
ShareLedger allows for the issuance of reputable off-chain credentials directly into the Vault, adhering to W3C standards for verifiable credentials. This ensures interoperability and trustworthiness across platforms.
Shielded Identities
Users can mint “Shielded Identities” as soulbound identity tokens, representing specific attributes or traits while maintaining privacy through Zero-Knowledge Information protocols.
Immutable Identity
By minting an “Immutable Identity” in the form of a soulbound token, users can bolster their digital reputation with immutable hashes that attest to the integrity and validity of their off-chain credentials.
Getting Started with ShareLedger
Web3 Users
Begin by creating and managing your Web3 identity using the Vault. Establishing a hybrid ID helps build your Web3 credibility.
Developers

Stakeholders
Participate in securing the network by staking your SHR tokens and earning rewards for your contribution.
$SHR: ShareToken
ShareToken (SHR) is the native token powering ShareLedger, facilitating transactions on the network by covering gas fees.
Additionally, SHR is utilized for governance purposes, allowing token holders to delegate their tokens and voting power to their chosen validators.
By integrating ShareLedger’s advanced identity solutions, users and developers can engage with a secure, interoperable, and efficient blockchain environment, paving the way for a more trustworthy and decentralized digital future.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Share Ledger?
Share Ledger is ShareRing's privacy-first public blockchain. It anchors verifiable credentials and identity proofs without exposing the underlying personal data, so individuals keep control of what is shared and organisations receive cryptographic certainty.
How does Share Ledger protect personal data?
Share Ledger never stores personal data on-chain. It records only tamper-evident hashes and consent receipts. Credentials stay inside the ShareRing Me wallet on the user's device, so data minimisation is built into the architecture.
How is Share Ledger different from general-purpose blockchains?
General-purpose chains are optimised for programmable assets. Share Ledger is purpose-built for verifiable identity, with predictable fees, regulated-industry throughput, and native primitives for issuance, verification, and revocation of credentials.
What compliance standards does Share Ledger support?
Share Ledger underpins products certified or aligned to UK DIATF (M1C), ISO 27001, GDPR, CCPA, APP (Australia), FATF Travel Rule, and AUSTRAC AML/CTF obligations. Anchoring credentials on-chain gives regulated businesses a cryptographic audit trail.
Who is building on Share Ledger?
Banks, fintechs, crypto exchanges, and Web3 platforms use Share Ledger in production. Live deployments include National Commercial Bank of Anguilla, Profit4Life, and decentralised finance projects on Cronos, all using ShareRing Me and ShareRing Link over the same ledger.
