# KYC (Keyring Network)

## **KYC / KYB Guide via Keyring Network**

This guide explains how to complete **KYC** through our partner **Keyring Network** on **Ethereum Mainnet**.

### **Who Should Complete KYC or KYB?**

* **Individuals:** Complete the **KYC (Know Your Customer)** process.
* **Businesses:** Complete the **KYB (Know Your Business)** process.

### **Step-by-Step KYC Process**

1. **Connect Your Wallet**
   * Use the wallet you want to designate as your **Master Wallet**.
   * This wallet will act as your **login mechanism** for Singularity.
2. **Complete Verification via Keyring Network**
   * Follow the Keyring Network flow to complete **KYC or KYB**.
   * Once completed, Singularity will receive an **API confirmation** that your wallet is approved.
3. **Add Trading Wallets (Optional)**
   * After verification, you can connect additional **Trading Wallets**.
   * These wallets must be verified via the **Master Wallet** on Keyring.
   * Switching between wallets is as simple as toggling your non-custodial wallet connection.

### **Important Key Points**

* The **Master Wallet** is critical:
  * Acts as your login and identity anchor.
  * Must be kept safe; losing access may prevent you from editing or verifying identity in the future.
* All verification is **private and compliant**: Singularity only receives confirmation of approved wallets.

### Follow these steps:

**Step 1:** Visit the Singularity app [here](https://app.thesingularity.network/).

**Step 2:** Connect your wallet just as you normally would with a DeFi application. We support Wallet Connect, MetaMask, and Fireblocks with more on the way.

If this is the first time using Singularity, you should see a widget in the bottom right in <mark style="color:yellow;">yellow.</mark> This indicates you have not completed verification yet.
