## Introduction Tokiphy revolutionizes the way blockchain wallets and tokens are authenticated for identity and token ownership. Rather than relying on a multitude of disparate, non-interoperable solutions with awkward user experiences, Tokiphy simplifies wallet access and token validation through one seamless process: an initial setup that binds a smartcard to your wallet. **Instantly authenticate a person's Tokiphy Card, user wallet identity and token ownership with one swift scan - no need for direct access to the blockchain wallet.** To make the process of onboarding to blockchain easier, Tokiphy Cards come with a pre-assigned blockchain wallet address that can actually be used on Ethereum, Polygon (Matic) and Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Creators have the option to load or drop NFT tokens in advance and distribute these cards among their users. Once users receive a card (e.g., ticket or collection of NFTs), it's possible for them to register the card and gain access and control over its default wallet. Additionally, they are able to transfer an NFT token into their personal wallets if desired. Tokiphy Cards are the perfect companion for any occasion, be it as a gift-card, membership card, access control or even keycards associated with your favorite brand. With their revolutionary and secure token authentication system that promises to provide you with an unprecedented level of speed and safety, Tokiphy allows brands, creators and businesses alike to create amazing real-life experiences unlike anything else available on the market today! # Why Tokiphy? Tokiphy is the perfect solution for anyone who needs to validate tokens quickly, easily, and safely. It doesn't require a smartphone wallet or any initial setup, and it can be used even without connectivity. ## Advantages Because it is easy to use and reliable, our customers not only like our solution but also feel good about it. This is especially true for users who are new to blockchain technology and lack experience with its actual usability. We take advantage of this by offering a solution that focuses on improved usability for the validation process, which sets us apart from other existing competitive solutions. In that way, we solve several pain points and bring blockchain token validation one step closer to mass adoption. ## LarsLabs LarsLabs GmbH, the hardware engineering company behind Tokiphy, has over three decades of experience in product design and cryptographic solution development. Decentralization, immutability, and direct smart contract interaction are all components of our technology that we comply with--something that makes us different from other companies who try to solve similar issues but don't have the same level of experience. **Made with Love in Munich.** # The Problem **There is no convenient way to validate digital blockchain tokens for authenticity and ownership without a wallet.** Most current solutions require a smartphone, centralized operators, wallet access or are easy to counterfeit. Digital blockchain token is an emerging technology that has been around for a few years. Digital assets are digital representations of real-world items and other tangible items. Digital collectibles (NFT) are virtual objects that can be traded on certain platforms. ID cards, documents, and admission tickets can also be represented digitally. QR codes are not secure and may easily be counterfeited. Printed certificates or confirmations are vulnerable and unreliable. Verification and authentication using unique software solutions with a lot of interoperability difficulties is required. Always relying on smartphone accessibility may be a huge annoyance, especially while wearing heavy clothing in working, sports, and safety situations where quick authentication is required to allow identification and access. # The Solution Tokiphy is a verification solution for blockchain-based tokens and assets. **It works offline for users, does not require wallet access, and is fast, secure, and simple to use.** We've created a secure, passive, high-secure NFC chip solution that is linked to the user's blockchain wallet through cryptographic certificates. The authenticity and ownership of the product is validated by a smart contract running on the blockchain and the Tokiphy Reader hardware. The user simply needs to be scanned without a smartphone, no connection required, and no need for electricity! **It all takes less than 2 seconds.** # The Team Our team is passionate and experienced, with more than 30 years of professional experience in product design, engineering, and marketing. Plus, we love blockchain technology! ## Lars Lars has been interested in hardware engineering since he was a kid, at the age of 12 he already repaired and sold old television sets. In 2015 he got interested in blockchain technology, built out of interest his own hardware wallet, and wrote all the code. He is an entrepreneur, hardware guru and visionary engineer. ## Dirk Dirk with his artistic roots and love for fabrics and design spent 20 years in Florence, Italy, gaining vast experience in the fashion industry. He helped companies to build luxury fashion brands as merchandiser and even designed his own collection. Dirk is also very excited about art and digital collectibles, holds several luxury NFTs and participates in famous online communities as a speaker or advisor.

The Founders of Tokiphy & LarsLabs

# How it started It all began when Lars and Dirk were waiting two hours in line for a music event in 2021. In addition to ticket verification, covid test certificates and personal IDs were manually verified during this procedure. Backstage access required that we show our IDs and go through a security check before being able to meet the artist, but it came with free drinks and snacks. There must be another way. With NFTs and the use of blockchain technology. Without access to a smartphone or wallet. To make the whole validation procedure easier and more pleasurable for consumers. **Tokiphy was born on that day!**

Prototyping of Tokiphy

# Ecosystem ## The Tokiphy Ecosystem Tokiphy is a technology that streamlines the verification process for blockchain wallet identity and token ownership. This is done through the use of a physical Tokiphy Card, a Tokiphy Chip, and a Tokiphy Reader device. **Tokiphy is a brand owned by LarsLabs GmbH, which is based in Munich, Germany**.
# Users, Creators and Validators ## Users A "User" refers to any individual or physical entity utilizing the Tokiphy Card or the Tokiphy Chip as a means of verifying their identity and confirming their ownership of tokens. The ownership of tokens is determined by the possession and interaction with NFT tokens in a blockchain wallet, while identity is established based on the ownership of the blockchain wallet. NFT token validation can enable additional token-gated services, benefits, and product experiences. ## Creators The term "Creators" refers to a wide range of individuals and entities, including NFT artists and brands, design studios, agencies, ticket providers, digital ID authorities, certificate issuers, schools, musicians, blockchain and web3 projects, and other token-gated service providers. ## Validators "Validators" are service providers such as event organizers, authorities, institutions, companies, or other entities in industries like sport, music, fashion, lifestyle, art and hospitality who utilize the Tokiphy Ecosystem. It is challenging to distinguish and merge Creators and Validators across various areas and their uses.
# Blockchains ## **Blockchain compatibility** We are currently in the public beta phase and can verify wallet interaction and validation on Ethereum, Polygon, and Binance Smart Chain (BSC). Additionally, we are currently working on integrating more blockchains into the Tokiphy Ecosystem soon. # Introduction Tokiphy provides technology services that enable creators, validators, web3 projects, industries, and other blockchain-related service providers to incorporate and utilize its technology in various areas. Its services simplify wallet access, user identity verification, and token validation. We are working with brands and web3 projects to test the use cases of blockchain token-gated services. These services include ticketing, access control based on certificates, digital identity, selling and releasing NFT collections. Our focus is on industries such as fashion, art, music, sports, events, and lifestyle. ## Details The Tokiphy platform has a lot of potential for various use cases and a diverse market opportunity. The identification and validation of digital tokens to identify the user and grant access to specific places, utilities, benefits and new consumer experiences, is required everywhere. Our target audience is industry professionals, event planners, the web3 community, art and fashion creators, businesses and lifestyle experts. Given the above challenges in digital identity verification, we believe that there is a significant potential to finally disrupt existing pain-points and roadblocks with our Tokiphy solution for blockchain-based digital identification validation. We saw great potential in our solution, so we started running tests in digital ticketing and fashion. We're already partnering with local event organizers on several projects, and are co-organizing various web3 events. Everyone who comes will receive a Tokiphy Card which not only acts as their ticket, but has other utilities and benefits built into it. One of those features is automatically generating proof of attendance. To round out the presentation, we show off how easy Tokiphy is to use with unique NFT holders, such as how to reclaim utilities like free beer and backstage access to meet and greet top artists. # Luxury brands Tokiphy allows luxury brands to explore new possibilities in customer experience by using blockchain technology for a better flow between online and offline shopping, as well as brand new customer experiences. **Discover all the advantages that Tokiphy has to offer brands and partners.** # Brands and partners NFTs in the beauty, lifestyle and fashion industry allows users to purchase virtual items that represent brands. For example, Gucci and Prada were the first luxury brands to dive into collaborations with other NFT projects and artists. NFTs are set to revolutionize the fashion industry, with luxury brands leading the charge in terms of using them to protect and increase their brand value. NFTs are projected to become luxury brands in their own right, and this will change the way people view and interact with the fashion industry. **NFTs have three main uses in the fashion industry:** 1. Authentication 2. Marketing 3. Virtual Fashion # Examples ## RTFKT The new Avatar collection and phygitals from RTFKT are changing the game by bridging the gap between the physical and virtual world. Today's business model is shifting to what is known as the creator economy. In this system, NFT holders have intellectual property and commercial rights over digital items. As a result, brands benefit from value created by their community, while NFT holders receive perks like special airdrops, merchandising or invitations to IRL events. **Key competitive advantages are here:** * **Technology driven** Based on their NFT. Service that allows users to access physical goods. * **Exclusivity** The target market is digital communities. Merchandise is linked to the avatar's DNA in the form of an NFT. * **Fully phygital** Customer identity and status is both virtual and physical. * **Interconnectivity** Each physical item has a Tokiphy chip embedded which gives customers opportunities to use the product, like getting access to events in a new way they have not experienced before. {% hint style="success" %} Tokiphy can tailor, adopt and integrate into any luxury item you might desire. {% endhint %} We help brands create and launch new product categories that are innovative, generate high margins, and provide customers with a brand-new experience. Our embedded chip connected to the customer's blockchain wallet allows verification of collectibles, digital utilities, benefits associated with the brand. By doing this we open up further use cases and create an entirely novel shopping experience for our customers. It positioned itself as being high-end and exclusive, with a focus on the authenticity of the culture surrounding web3. Targeting their audience of wealthy and experienced crypto natives as NFT holders who respect bluechip NFTs in their portfolios. Imagine having the Tokiphy chip embedded in a design solution customized to your brand. Brands can have a new, "sexy" and trendy state of the art design that is exclusive to their luxury customers. It's a new sales channel with limitless possibilities for benefits from it are unending. ## Ferragamo Recently, Ferragamo collaborated with digital artist Shxpir to create a shop in SOHO New York where NFTs are becoming physical experiences for the brands offering in-store minting. This is proof that brands are bridging physical goods to digital NFTs, and now the first retailers have started to incorporate NFT technology into their physical stores. Tokiphy's technology allows for easy token validation that is both fast and secure, helping these brands in the process. {% hint style="success" %} In addition Tokiphy helps to prevent fraud. {% endhint %} Tokiphy provides an easy minting process, pre-installed NFTs to mint in store, cross benefits with other communities and a highly recognizable outstanding product - increasing usability, security and customer satisfaction. Tokiphy offers a chip solution that can be embedded in bracelets, necklaces, and other jewelry. This helps brands increase awareness, onboard new customers, and offer innovative brand experiences. ## Tokenizing By tokenizing a brand specific loyalty card, Tokiphy verifies its digital entity and ownership. Afterwards, the customer is allowed to claim benefits in-store or online - such as special discounts only for NFTs holders, special giveaways, and in-store events. NFT holders can use their proof of eligibility to take advantage of benefits that vertical businesses, such as those in the hospitality space, offer. For example, we have seen an increase in brands emerging into the luxury hospitality sector through a direct or partner approach. These relationships could result in perks like discounts on rooms, suits, restaurants, SPA treatments and beauty services, as well as unique in-house experiences . By targeting a new customer base with digital token in their wallets, businesses can segment customers for targeted offers. {% hint style="success" %} The key is finding the right process to facilitate onboarding. {% endhint %} Even though getting a traditional membership is easier for most people, companies must still invest in improving the onboarding experience of NFT membership-based programs. For brands considering NFT-based memberships, it’s crucial to reduce the learning curve as small as possible for non-blockchain users - ideally, they won't even realize they are using web3 technologies. Tokiphy makes it easier for users by having a wallet address pre-assigned to each card. This means that the user does not need any knowledge about web3 or blockchain technology to start using the Tokiphy card. Brands can supply the Tokiphy card together with membership or utilities that are pre-loaded onto their public wallet address. At a later stage, the user can claim their private keys, or even backup the card during the initial assignment procedure by also transferring the NFTs to their main, secure wallet. This situation is beneficial for both parties involved. With trust, security and peace of mind being combined with all the benefits and utilities that are available for the target group, it makes perfect sense to move forward with this option. ## Brands and Merchant Partners Large brands are now teaming up with other companies in order to provide users access to discounts, deals and status. Potential partners include restaurants, nutrition stores, food stores, luxury accessory brands, gyms hotels and rental agencies among others. {% hint style="success" %} It's never been easier to offer a new shopping experience. {% endhint %} # Token-gating **Token-gating is when you use a token or NFT to unlock something. This can be anything from digital content to physical goods.** Brands can offer exclusive merchandise to their fans that also doubles as a ticket to the event. By embedding the Tokiphy Chip in t-shirts and other items of clothing, brands can give fans access to digital content before the event. This allows sponsors to get more exposure for their brand while also delivering an easy and convenient experience for music lovers. Fashion brands are always trying to stay ahead of the curve, and one way they're doing that is by experimenting with limited apparel collections. Tokiphy offers NFC tags that offer even more benefits, like validating digital twins linked to the metaverse, pre-installed NFTs linked to holders and physical items. This could be your ticket into IRL events or a meet and greet with artists! ## Example: Yuga Labs & Doodles Exemplary web3 native media companies, such as Yuga Labs and Doodles, have been pioneers of exclusive membership events. Tokiphy is an excellent way for web3 communities to easily organize fun IRL events that come with personalized tickets catered to the attendees. Tokiphy helps to bring people from different communities together and create new ecosystems. We validate digital tokens from different NFT projects so that we can unite project lovers from the art, fashion, and music sectors. Token-gating can either be simple, such as owning x to unlock y, or it can more complex and based on different variables: * What combination of NFTs a user owns * Which specific traits those NFTs have * How long the user has owned them When you own a digital blockchain wallet, it will be similar to carrying around your pocket wallet today. In the future, digital tokens will take the place of cash or other assets for payments and accessing services and benefits. {% hint style="success" %} Tokiphy is the solution you need to verify identity and ownership quickly, easily and safely. {% endhint %} Token-gated commerce is predicted to grow rapidly because NFTs can connect customer journeys through platforms. This means that the platform a customer uses does not matter - what matters most is that the brand creates an engaging and easy experience. For Shopify merchants, this could look like setting up a token gate on their online store and providing customers with a step-by-step guide on how to collect tickets using Tokiphy's utility services. **With digital identities in metaverses, customer experiences are going from 2D to 3D and physical to virtual.** NFTs are shrouded in a sense of scarcity, provenance, community, and knowledge. We can see how digital fashion designers will utilize Tokiphy to create an entirely different ecosystem that prioritizes traceability. This would allow brands to have control over the secondary market while also providing customers with insight into which artist wore their dress at a specific event. **We have full confidence that Phygitals will be the most crucial role in the near future.** # Tokiphy Card The Tokiphy Card is a customizable physical smart card that features the Tokiphy brand, logo, and a hologram imprint on the backside. It also includes a serial number, a QR code, a security label, and other edition-specific details.

Card Front - Custom Design / Brand related

The QR code on the card has the public address of an EVM-compatible blockchain wallet assigned to it. This QR code can be scanned from a wallet such as metamask and may serve as a destination address if you wish to transfer NFT tokens to the card's default wallet. \ The card code printed below the security label is necessary for both user registration and card claim functions. You can register and assign a new Tokiphy Card to yourself through the Tokiphy Portal. When you register, a blockchain wallet is generated by default, which you can claim afterwards (check Tokiphy Wallet). If you want, you can also assign an existing custom wallet to your Tokiphy Card using Metamask and Wallet Connect signatures. {% hint style="info" %} Register your Tokiphy Card at [Tokiphy.io](http://tokiphy.io) {% endhint %} {% hint style="warning" %} Register only after removing the security label. Avoid registering your card if the code is exposed and readable as it may become invalid. {% endhint %} The default wallet is not assigned to any user at the beginning. The first user who registers their card code on the Tokiphy Platform will have access to the wallet. This is when the Tokiphy Wallet functionality will become available. ## It´s not a hardware wallet The Tokiphy Cards are not a type of hardware wallet and they do not store any private keys or personal information related to blockchain wallets. Tokiphy Cards serve various purposes such as being custom branded gift-cards, collectible cards, membership cards, identification cards, authentication cards, access control cards, or general key cards. ## Can be scanned through NFC Technology The Tokiphy Card can be used with Tokiphy Reader hardware to instantly confirm a user's public blockchain wallet address and verify their ownership of tokens. This includes both the default wallet and any assigned custom wallets. The Tokiphy Cards utilize NFC technology within a range of 80 centimeters for scanning. Tokiphy cards are being distributed either directly under the Tokiphy brand or through third-party brands, but the back side of the card always has the Tokiphy brand printed on it. ## Custom Brands Tokiphy Cards can be used by brands and creators to provide token-gated services. They do this by checking token ownership on designated user wallets. Additionally, brands and creators can add NFTs or digital blockchain certificates to Tokiphy Cards ahead of time and distribute them to their customers. Customers can then claim the corresponding NFTs or certificates using the Tokiphy Wallet solution at a later time. The experience allows users to claim their drops using only the Tokiphy Card, providing a physical NFT mint experience. Users do not require blockchain technology experience or a wallet to participate.
# Tokiphy Chip The Tokiphy Chip is a smaller version of the Tokiphy Card meant for embedding or wearing. Although smaller, it has the same features and capabilities as the Tokiphy Card. Because of its smaller size and antenna, it uses NFC proximity technology, with a scanning range of up to 10 centimeters. The Tokiphy Chip is great for verifying the authenticity of physical products in relation to their digital NFT twin or originality certificate.
## Design Examples We´ve built several design examples of luxury, watch-style bracelets that contain our Tokiphy chip. It has an enclosure made of CNC machined aluminum that has been anodized matte. There is an elegant and stylish engraving on both sides with the brand name. The top cover uses real stone veneer that consists of an ultra-thin natural stone layer and it's reinforced with glass fibers and cotton. Each cover is unique since they're all handmade. On-demand, we can provide custom branding as well as different types and styles of stone covers.
By working with established brands and offering complete customization of our Tokiphy chip, we help them generate additional revenue through a new product category that offers generous margins while giving customers an all-new brand experience. The authentication of brand-related digital collectibles, utilities and benefits using our embedded chip linked to the client's blockchain wallet opens up further usage possibilities and new in-house shopping experiences.
Luxury accessories can be mixed and matched with the most current fashion trends. A Louis Vuitton bag or Nike Sneaker, for example, provides evidence that you own your digital blockchain twin. Tokiphy allows for an infinite number of possibilities, and it does so in the most secure, simple, and adaptable way possible. # Security The Tokiphy Hardware offers encrypted data storage, encrypted data transfer, and signature validation features. These features can be accessed using the Tokiphy identification and authentication system. All data stored in Tokiphy Cards and Tokiphy Chips are encrypted with AES256, ensuring that they cannot be read, copied, or tampered with by third-party products. The secure element we use for key generation and storage is CC EAL5+ certified. ## Made in Germany Our Tokiphy Cards and other Tokiphy products are made in Germany under LarsLabs GmbH's supervision. The manufacturing process adheres to the highest standards of quality and security. The EMS partner production lines have ISO 9001 and ISO 14001 certifications. Additionally, we ensure compliance with ISO 27001. At LarsLabs in Germany, we also handle in-house engineering for both hardware and software. # How it works Tokiphy requires a new chip or card to be linked with the user's blockchain wallet. We establish this connection by issuing a blank chip with an encrypted certificate, which is then signed by the user's corresponding wallet. This certificate is stored on the blockchain and can be accessed and verified through our Tokiphy Reader hardware. ## New applications Our Tokiphy validation solution not only allows companies to build new applications on top of it but also allows them to invent entirely new use cases. We're even considering open-sourcing our hardware design under certain licensing terms so that we can find a broader and faster mass adoption. As an experienced hardware startup, we offer design support for OEM hardware solutions of our chip and card so that they can be used in customized physical products and wearables. ## Default wallet In addition, for widespread adoption, we have given each chip a default blockchain address where only its public address is available. The private key is automatically generated during the production process through a secure and random cybersecurity-certified process that is unknown to us. The user receives the public blockchain address along with the chip, which is engraved on the Tokiphy Smart Card. For non-affine web3 and blockchain users, the elderly and handicapped, as well as others who find it difficult to set up our Tokiphy solution step by step, this is an excellent opportunity. They don't even need a blockchain wallet. During any purchase procedure, digital certificates, collectibles, tickets, or NFTs can be submitted directly to this designated address that is linked to our chip and card by default. # Introduction Tokiphy Wallet is a technology solution to simplify user wallet access. Each Tokiphy Card comes with a default Ethereum, Polygon (Matic) and Binance Smart Chain (BSC) wallet that is assigned to the card during manufacturing and initialization. {% hint style="info" %} We plan to implement more chains in the near future. {% endhint %} After the user who has claimed the Tokiphy Card by registering its card code on the Tokiphy Platform, in a second step, the user can claim these Tokiphy Card default wallets. # Wallet claim When you claim a Tokiphy Wallet, you will have complete control over the default wallets, including the ability to export and import private keys to other wallet solutions. This transforms the wallets into a non-custodial solution, with Tokiphy serving only as a technology provider and not a custodian. During the claiming procedure, the user needs to choose a pin code that is used to encrypt wallet access on the Tokiphy platform. Once this wallet claim pin is chosen and applied, Tokiphy loses access to the wallet functionality without further user interaction. Tokiphy does not store this pin directly in any data storage. The pin is transformed into a hashed pin and used to encrypt wallet interaction. The Tokiphy Platform requires users to provide their wallet claim pin for every transaction they want to initiate. This is mandatory during user interaction. {% hint style="danger" %} **Please note that the wallet claim pin cannot be changed nor recovered.** {% endhint %} If you forget or lose your wallet claim pin, you will not be able to initiate any wallet transactions on the Tokiphy platform. When you start the wallet claim process, you will receive a confirmation email at the email address you used to register your Tokiphy Card. The claiming procedure cannot be confirmed using any other email address. Once you receive the confirmation email for your wallet claim, you must click on the link provided in the email to complete the process. If you do not confirm the email within 5 minutes, the wallet claim procedure will be canceled. Once the claim is confirmed, the default wallets assigned to a card will be available to the user for wallet export, and other services. The Tokiphy validation solution is always enabled for the Tokiphy Card settings, regardless of whether a user's wallet has been claimed or not. The system validates NFTs belonging to the associated wallet addresses on the mainnet through the Tokiphy ecosystem. **The user is free to choose whether or not they want to utilize Tokiphy Wallet and its associated services.** # Wallet export To export their wallet's private keys, the user must first claim the default wallet successfully. The private keys are then exported in an encrypted keystore format, which requires a password. The user cannot directly export the private keys. They must enter the correct wallet claim pin for every interaction with the wallet, including exporting the default wallet. Additionally, a second password is required for exporting the wallet. The wallet export password is meant to encrypt the keystore file before it's sent to the user. Later, if the user wishes to import the keystore file into another wallet, they'll need the same wallet encryption password to decrypt the keystore file. {% hint style="danger" %} **Please note that the wallet export password cannot be changed nor recovered.** {% endhint %} If you forget or lose the password, you will not be able to import or decrypt your exported wallet keystore file. It's important to remember this before initiating the wallet export process, which can only be done after successfully claiming your wallet. # Legal aspects **Update: 01.05.2025**\ Token transfers via the Tokiphy platform are now disabled.\ After claiming and exporting your wallet, you can easily import your Tokiphy default wallet into third-party applications like MetaMask. From there, you can independently manage your non-custodial wallet with full control. # Custom wallet Users can link their existing wallets to the Tokiphy Card via Metamask or Wallet Connect, alongside the default wallet available. This allows both wallets to be verified in real-time for token ownership. # The Portal **Update 01.05.2025** You can now register your Tokiphy Card seamlessly through the Tokiphy Portal, available online at **Tokiphy.io**. We've simplified and enhanced the way you interact with your Tokiphy Card. All previous platform interactions are now managed directly via a streamlined confirmation email you’ll receive upon setup. This improved HTML-based confirmation email allows you to interact with your Tokiphy Card easily, enabling you to activate or deactivate specific features with just a few clicks. Direct buttons included in the email also let you: * Claim your wallet * Export your wallet * Activate or deactivate your Tokiphy Card * Link a custom wallet to your card * Set a backup email address * Set a backup phone number * Configure optional brand and magic links By clicking these buttons, you’ll be redirected to the Tokiphy Portal, where you can, for example, enter your PIN to claim your wallet or use your password to export it. Our updated documentation is still in progress, so if you have any questions or need additional support, feel free to reach out to us at ****.

# Default Wallets You can view the available wallets assigned to your Tokiphy Card by checking the overview. To use the wallet functions, such as key export you must first claim each wallet one by one. To clarify, you should only claim the wallet on the specific chain that you require. # Wallet Claim Before claiming a wallet, you must select a pin code for the wallet claim. You need to choose a pin code that is used to encrypt wallet access on the Tokiphy platform. Once this wallet claim pin is chosen and applied, Tokiphy loses access to the wallet functionality without further user interaction. {% hint style="danger" %} **Please note that the wallet claim pin cannot be changed nor recovered.** {% endhint %} If you forget or lose your wallet claim pin, you will not be able to initiate a wallet export Tokiphy platform. {% hint style="info" %} **The Pin must consist of a minimum of 6 and a maximum of 12 digits, and the first digit must not be zero.** {% endhint %} {% content-ref url="/pages/kL96T2i8REfciDnFb1pf" %} [Wallet claim](/tokiphy-wallet/wallet-claim) {% endcontent-ref %} ​Once you receive the confirmation email for your wallet claim, you must click on the link provided in the email to complete the process. If you do not confirm the email within 5 minutes, the wallet claim procedure will be canceled. {% hint style="info" %} **To complete your claim, please click on the "CLAIM NOW" button and check your email. You must confirm your claim within 5 minutes.** {% endhint %} An email will be sent to the email address that you provided when you registered your Tokiphy card. # Custom Wallet To add a custom wallet, go to the icon menu on the left and select "Custom Wallet".

To link your personal wallet with your Tokiphy card, click on "Connect Wallet" and connect it to your web3 wallet. If the message "Wrong Network" appears, switch to Ethereum and try again as the signature can only be done on the Ethereum network. Different wallet chains are supported for validation and NFT claims.​ Once you have connected to web3 and signed in successfully, you can link your Tokiphy card with a custom wallet. Please note that currently only one custom wallet can be linked to your Tokiphy card. However, if you wish to link a different wallet, you can remove the current one and link the new one. This applies at all times.
{% hint style="danger" %} **Your Tokiphy Card is not yet linked to your custom wallet!** {% endhint %} To complete the assignment process, click on "Assign wallet to card >" after you have successfully signed.
{% hint style="success" %} You now can see the confirmation that your custom wallet is linked to your Tokiphy Card. {% endhint %} Just to clarify, we do not distinguish between chains here. When verifying a card, we search all chains (Ethereum, Polygon, and BSC) for a potential token contract match to simplify the overall process. {% hint style="danger" %} You can only add one custom wallet at a time to your Tokiphy Card. {% endhint %} To remove your personal wallet from the Tokiphy verification process or add another wallet to the Tokiphy Card, simply click on "Remove wallet from card>" and begin the process again whenever you want. # Documentation Links to this documentation. # Introduction The Tokiphy Validator is a service that helps identify the owner of a blockchain wallet and confirms their token ownership. To use it, you will need two hardware components: **Tokiphy Card or Chip and a Tokiphy Reader device.** The Tokiphy Card is connected to a blockchain wallet belonging to the user. By using the Tokiphy Reader hardware to scan the card, we are able to verify the user's token ownership and identify their wallet in a single step. Validators have the ability to choose a particular blockchain token, which is referred to as the NFT minting contract address, on Ethereum, Polygon (Matic) or the Binance Smart Chain (BSC). By adjusting settings such as token id, token quantities, native token balances, name, symbol, metadata properties, and traits, an even more specific selection can be made. The validator can fully customize their validation criteria for blockchain tokens through programming. Once you complete the initial setup process, you can scan your user card with a Tokiphy Reader to receive a response of either "VERIFIED" or "UNVERIFIED". {% hint style="success" %} The validation process happens in real-time as the system checks the blockchain. {% endhint %} The entire procedure is typically completed in less than two seconds but may be affected by connectivity and blockchain node activity. Our plan includes supporting REST API services to facilitate API integration into third-party applications and apps in the near future. # Introduction The Tokiphy Reader is a piece of hardware that scans Tokiphy Cards to verify the identity of the wallet and the ownership of the tokens.
