Moca Chain is a Layer 1 EVM-compatible blockchain purpose-built for decentralized identity, enabling chain-agnostic identity data issuance and verifications. Its architecture centers on scalable transaction throughput, fast block times, and permissionless participation for both users and ecosystem partners.

​
Key Features

  • Fast block times (~1 second) with instant finality via CometBFT consensus
  • Purpose-built for identity — optimized for credential issuance, verification, and storage
  • Decentralized storage — built-in MCSP network for credential data

​
Goals of the Chain

  • Identity Interoperability: A unified identity across ecosystems, reducing fragmentation.
  • Data Storage & Security: Privacy-preserving mechanisms like zero-knowledge proofs (ZKPs) and encryption within its protocol alongside its data storage layer.
  • Holder-Centric Economy: Users control and monetize their data held in their own crypto wallet.

​
Key Components

Moca Chain’s architecture comprises two interconnected components:
  1. EVM-Compatible Blockchain — Solidity-compatible smart contract execution layer
  2. Moca Chain Storage Providers (MCSPs) — Decentralized storage network for credential data
At its heart, Moca Chain operates on a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus using CometBFT (formerly Tendermint), producing blocks every second for high throughput. It uses $MOCA for gas fees, governance, staking, and storage operations, ensuring economic alignment among stakeholders.
