Haven – Blockchain With Biometric Authentication
Matthew Jones is the founder at Haven, a blockchain ecosystem based on the foundations of anonymity and authenticated ownership. Using real and continuous biometric authentication it verifies that the user is the true authenticated owner at all times. It protects users from fraud, loss, and impersonation by making your face the ultimate key. No passwords, no seed phrases, no risks of theft.

Why you should listen
Haven is building what it calls the world’s first blockchain ecosystem powered by continuous biometric authentication. Instead of relying on passwords, seed phrases, or private keys, Haven ties wallet access directly to an encrypted, live biometric signature — essentially letting users interact with the blockchain simply by being themselves. The goal is to make digital ownership feel seamless and secure, removing one of the biggest points of friction in Web3: losing or managing keys.
At the heart of the project is the Haven Blockchain, designed so every wallet and transaction is verified through the user’s biometric identity. This creates a user experience where onboarding is immediate, recovery is intuitive, and security is built in from the ground up. Haven’s approach also aims to bridge mainstream audiences into Web3 by offering familiar, easy-to-use authentication rather than complex crypto tooling.
Haven is also positioning itself as a developer-friendly platform. Through Open Layer — their upcoming development environment — builders will be able to create dApps that automatically inherit Haven’s secure, biometric-first design. Their roadmap includes the Haven Wallet & App launch in October 2025, followed by a pre-ICO in November and a full blockchain release in 2026, promising a growing ecosystem built around identity-native Web3 experiences.
