Nescio ID lets a game (or any app) know a player is a real, unique human (and over 18 if you ask) without storing their name, birthdate, or ID. Players scan their passport in an app on their phone; you get an anonymous per-game ID. Bans stick. Smurfs don't.

Could you build this?
No Implementing zero-knowledge identity verification from biometric passport NFC chips requires specialized cryptographic engineering, zero-knowledge proofs (ZKP), and strict hardware-level security.
What it would actually take: Requires an iOS and Android native app reading ePassport ICAO 9303 RFID chips over NFC, validating government PKI certificate chains, and executing passive/active authentication. It then generates zero-knowledge proofs (e.g., via Circom/snarkjs or custom zk-SNARK circuits) to prove age and uniqueness without revealing plaintext identity data. This requires world-class cryptography experts specialized in applied ZKP, NFC hardware protocols, and secure enclave architectures.
