# The document shelf

Role manuals for the MintID network — versioned, dated, and honest about what runs today and what is still design. Each manual states its own limits on the cover: these are v0.1 public editions of a pre-genesis protocol.

Role manuals

## One manual per role

Each manual is a self-contained guide to the role it describes. They are written for the people who will operate in that role, and they describe the protocol as it is designed.

[HOLDER

### Holder Manual

What it means to hold a MintID credential: getting one, proving things without revealing yourself, staying valid, and what happens when things go wrong.

For people (and fleet operators) who will hold credentials. Describes the designed protocol

### Issuer Manual

How to establish and operate as an identity issuer on the MintID network: compliance, software and infrastructure.

For KYC providers considering becoming an accepted issuer.

### Validator Manual

Operating consensus for an identity-first chain: economics, slashing, node operations and what the bootstrap deal actually is.

For professional node operators. Pre-genesis: validator parameters are still open

### Verifier SDK Manual

How to become a relying party on the MintID network and integrate the verifier SDK: registration, the presentation pipeline, and operations.

For integrators. The full pipeline is testable today; the proof engine is still in development and fails closed until it ships.

### The whitepaper

The plain-language tour of the whole protocol: the problem, the architecture, the network roles, the staged launch and the gates that hold it honest. Read it on this site; the whitepaper document and the specifications behind it are shared on request.

### Economic-viability audit (July 2026)

The full document corpus examined end to end — performed by Conectia PRO, a related-party service provider to the protocol, not an arm’s-length third party, disclosed on the report’s cover. The verdict, stated whole, and the complete register of critical findings with their answers are published on this site; the full report is shared on request.
