VFACE

Your pseudonym, cryptographically yours.

VFACE gives you a persistent identity that nobody can steal or fake. Pick a name, get a unique visual fingerprint tied to your key. Anyone can verify it's really you — without knowing who you are.

How do you want to handle your signing key?

Your public key

Works with any key type or format: Ed25519, RSA, PEM, SSH, hex strings. Headers like -----BEGIN PUBLIC KEY----- and SSH prefixes are stripped automatically.
YubiKey users: paste your public key — the private key stays in the hardware. This is the recommended setup. Compatible with yubicrypt and yubisigner.

A fresh Ed25519 key pair will be generated for you. You'll download it as a JSON file — keep it safe, it's your identity.

Upload an identicon image to check if it's a valid Ch1ffr3punk identicon. Optionally enter identity details to check if the image belongs to a specific identity.

Advanced — verify an Ed25519 signed message. Paste the details from the message headers to check if the signature is genuine.
