Moca Chain is a Layer 1 EVM-compatible blockchain purpose-built for decentralized identity, enabling chain-agnostic identity data issuance and verifications.
Moca Chain is built on EVMOS (a Cosmos SDK EVM implementation) and integrates Moca’s adaptation of BNB Greenfield’s decentralized storage. Oracles and bridges relay identity data to other chains, so Moca Chain becomes the single source of truth for identity while staying interoperable with the rest of Web3. This means Moca Chain:
  • Houses the credential and identity-based smart contracts
  • Manages the decentralized storage where credentials live
  • Lets users relay proofs across chains

Sub-second identity flows

CometBFT consensus with 1-second blocks and instant finality. Age checks, KYC gates, and logins commit in a single block, so identity flows feel synchronous to the end user.

Consumer-scale capacity

800 transactions per block and a 60,000,000 gas limit. The chain is sized for ZK verifier contracts and batched credential issuance at production volume rather than testnet workloads.

Builder-ready

EVM-compatible with transient storage (EIP-1153) and other Shanghai opcodes. Existing Solidity contracts port over with little to no rewrite, and standard Ethereum tooling (Hardhat, Foundry, Remix, MetaMask) works out of the box. Integration timelines move from quarters to days.

Storage without the liability (MCSP)

The Moca Chain Storage Provider network (MCSP) gives partners S3-compatible decentralized storage, modeled after BNB Greenfield. Partners stop running their own credential databases, and users keep ownership of the underlying data.
  • Payload data is stored by independent Storage Providers
  • Object metadata, payments, and permissions are recorded on-chain
  • Apps interact via S3-compatible APIs to upload, download, and manage objects
  • Replication and integrity proofs protect data availability

Privacy by construction

Zero-knowledge proofs use Circom circuits and Groth16, with selective disclosure defined at the schema level. Apps confirm a user is over 18, KYC’d, or accredited without ever seeing the underlying attributes. Raw data stays on the user’s device, which materially reduces GDPR and CCPA exposure for partners.

Verify once, recognized everywhere

Proofs are relayed off Moca Chain via oracles and bridges. A single verification carries to every chain a partner ships into next, so users do not re-prove the same credential per ecosystem.

CometBFT consensus layer

Moca Chain uses CometBFT consensus and is governed by $MOCA holders who decide the future direction of the ecosystem:
  • Community members can submit governance proposals with a minimum deposit
  • Proposals enter a voting period
  • Proposals must meet minimum participation thresholds
  • Approved proposals are executed on-chain automatically

Cosmos SDK with EVM compatibility

Moca Chain combines the Cosmos SDK with EVM functionality based on EVMOS in a single environment:
  • Cosmos $MOCA and EVM $MOCA are the same currency, managed by the same bank keeper module
  • All addresses on chain look like EVM addresses (e.g., 0x1234…7890)
  • The EVM runs the LONDON instruction set with selected SHANGHAI opcodes:
    • EIP-3855
    • EIP-3860
    • EIP-1153 (transient storage)
    • EIP-5656
    • EIP-6780

Moca Chain Storage Provider network (MCSP)

Moca Chain ships with a built-in decentralized storage layer, the MCSP network, inspired by BNB Greenfield:
  • Payload data is stored by independent Storage Providers
  • Object metadata, payments, and permissions are recorded on-chain
  • Users and apps interact via S3-compatible APIs to upload, download, and manage objects
  • Data availability is protected through replication and integrity proofs
  • Providers earn storage fees for service, with penalties for misbehavior
  • Verifiable, cost-efficient storage for the Moca credential system and broader applications
