About the project

keyvault is a blockchain-based password manager (for more details, see Documentation) and is motivated by the need for a secure and decentralized password password manager not beholden to any single entity whether it be some website administrator or some social login identity provider.

An early version of this project was submitted to the Polkadot ink! Hackathon in Oct/Nov 2023.

Tina Bregović has provided an insightful write-up of the event, which is available on Medium under the title Polkadot ink! Hackathon powered by Encode Club—Prizewinners and Summary.

Further, while the project did not place in the Astar Bounty track, which offered winners “exclusive access to a mentor programme with Astar,” I received invaluable encouragement from Astar's Sofiya Vasylyeva. Her words of encouragement and periodic check-ins on my progress have significantly contributed to the continued development of this project. Without her support, the journey to this point would have been much longer and more challenging.

More details coming soon...
