Dhiway

Dhiway is an Indian technology company founded in 2021 that develops blockchain-based digital identity and verifiable credentials solutions. The company's core offering is the CORD Network, a tokenless layer-1 blockchain designed for population-scale identity and credential verification use cases.

The company's main products include MARK Studio, a platform for issuing and managing verifiable credentials anchored to the CORD blockchain, and an upcoming digital wallet for storing credentials. Dhiway implements several key technical standards including W3C Verifiable Credentials, W3C DIDs, and Zero Knowledge Proofs for selective disclosure. The CORD Network is built using the Parity Technologies Substrate framework and focuses on providing enterprise-ready infrastructure without tokenomics.

Dhiway has established notable partnerships and integrations, including becoming a steward of the Sovrin Network and a founding member of the Trust over IP Foundation. In 2023, the company partnered with the Indian government-backed Open Network for Digital Commerce (ONDC) to implement blockchain-based trust and verification systems. The company has raised pre-seed funding of $1 million and continues to develop its infrastructure for digital identity and verifiable data exchange use cases across sectors like education, healthcare, and commerce.
