Meta Akita, undertaking preservation initiatives around Japan’s Akita dogs alongside regional revitalization drives, has collaborated with layer 1 blockchain Concordium to harness uniquely privacy-centric digital identity capabilities.
By baking Concordium’s Web3 ID frame into its stack, Meta Akita seeks to unlock new modalities empowering its global community to participate in conservation efforts without sacrificing personal information security.
TLDR
- Meta Akita, working to protect Akita dogs and revitalize the Akita prefecture, will use Concordium’s Web3 ID wallet.
- Concordium’s wallet allows privacy-preserving digital identity verification via zero-knowledge proof technology.
- This lets Meta Akita meet KYC requirements without users divulging personal information when interacting with Akita dog NFTs and metaverse.

“Thanks to Concordium’s unique digital identity framework, we can meet KYC requirements without asking our users and community to divulge sensitive information in the process,” said TASUKOF, Meta Akita co-founder.
By fusing Web3 innovations with its preservation agenda, Meta Akita spotlights innovative digital economy boons that simultaneously respect customs. And for Concordium, the collaboration typifies its technology’s ability to responsibly progress society.
“Meta Akita has recognized the value of new Web3 tools to further its honorable mission of improving the Akita Prefecture and protecting the Akita dog breed,” noted Torben Kaaber, Concordium Head of Commercial.
The integration synthetically bridges the old and new – the heritage Akita dog breed and future facing tools promising enhanced connectivity, transparency and privacy.
Beyond enabling privacy-first participation with Meta Akita’s NFT and metaverse initiatives, Concordium’s ID stack also helps guard its community against fraud.
Thanks to authentication protocols that don’t expose personal details, users can cryptographically confirm counterparts in communications possess verified identities. This mitigates impersonation risks and fosters safer digital engagement.
By merging the strengths of Concordium and Meta Akita, blockchain technology can responsibly progress a centuries old cultural tradition around Japan’s national dog to new horizons while respecting the past.
