Go to Profile Manager

PrivNet Dashboard

Manage your self-sovereign identity profile with complete control

Profile Management

The PrivNet Dashboard is your central hub for managing your decentralized identity. Create and edit your profile with complete sovereignty—your data is stored on Web5's Decentralized Web Node (DWN), giving you full ownership and control.

  • Set your PrivNet username, full name, bio, and job title
  • Add social links and external profiles
  • View and manage all your profile versions (records)

Decentralized Private Chat

End-to-end encrypted messaging powered by zero-knowledge technology

Zero-Knowledge Encrypted Messaging

PrivNet's private chat system uses zero-knowledge proofs and your DID keys to ensure complete privacy. Messages are encrypted end-to-end, meaning only you and your conversation partner can read them. Your identity remains pseudonymous—chat with others using your DID without revealing personal information.

  • Start conversations with any DID (Decentralized Identifier)
  • End-to-end encryption using your DID cryptographic keys
  • Pseudonymous identity—chat without revealing personal details
  • Real-time messaging with blockchain-backed security
  • Optional self-destructing messages for sensitive conversations
