AlpenSign turns the Solana Seeker into a transaction sealing device for banks. Independent, immutable, cryptographic proof of payment authorization — on a ledger no single party controls.
When a client disputes a payment, the bank's defense rests on server logs they generated, stored, and control. That's self-serving evidence. Courts know it. Regulators know it. Fraudsters know it.
Bank logs prove what the bank says happened. In a dispute, that's structurally weak — the bank is both the record keeper and the interested party.
Clients who made legitimate purchases then dispute them. Buyer's remorse disguised as fraud. Banks absorb billions annually because they can't prove the client was present.
SMS OTP, push notifications, app-based 2FA — all controlled by the bank or dependent on Google's infrastructure. No independent, verifiable trail.
AlpenSign creates an independent evidence chain — from verified hardware through verified identity to immutable proof of authorization.
The Seeker's soulbound NFT proves the phone is real hardware, verified by SKR-staked Guardians through TEEPIN. No Google. No centralized attestation.
Soulbound NFT · Non-transferableThe bank issues a credential via Solana Attestation Service to the Seeker wallet, binding the client relationship to the verified device. Revocable by the bank.
SAS Attestation · RevocableClient reviews payment details on-device, confirms with biometric. The Seeker's secure element signs and the proof is posted to Solana. Permanent. Immutable.
Biometric + Secure ElementBank checks: Genesis Token (real device) + credential (our client) + seal (biometric confirmed). Independent evidence chain. Client's claim falls apart.
"Banks today outsource their mobile security to the walled gardens of Big Tech (Apple and Google). AlpenSign returns that control to the institution by anchoring hardware integrity directly into Solana’s neutral consensus layer."
Hardware-isolated key storage with biometric-gated signing. Keys never leave the secure element. The Genesis Token anchors device identity on-chain.
Permissionless credential protocol from the Solana Foundation. Used for both bank credentials and transaction seals. No custom smart contracts needed.
Native wallet integration, dApp runtime, and TEEPIN device verification. The Seeker is the only phone where secure signing and Solana attestation are integrated at the OS level.
Trusted Execution Environment Platform Infrastructure Network. SKR-staked Guardians verify device authenticity — the economic security layer behind the Genesis Token.
