Onboarding (Email + MPC)
Operator and jurisdiction: BASIS is operated by BASIS DIGITAL INFRASTRUCTURE LTD, a Seychelles IBC (LEI: 254900IX2F2KCWNSSS64).
BASIS keeps onboarding fast without relaxing account security.
Instead of a username/password account, BASIS uses email code login with an MPC (Multi-Party Computation) model via Privy™.
1) Create an account / sign in
Enter your email address.
Retrieve the 6-digit verification code from your email inbox.
Enter the code to complete sign-in.
✅ The flow is the same for first-time sign-in and later sign-ins. ✅ You do not create or store a password.
2) What MPC means in practice
Most accounts and wallets depend on one secret such as a password, private key, or seed phrase. If that secret is exposed, the account may be compromised.
MPC reduces that single-secret failure mode by:
splitting sensitive authentication material into multiple encrypted shares
storing those shares across independent security boundaries
requiring multiple shares to reconstruct an authorization operation
What this does not mean
MPC does not eliminate phishing risk
MPC does not make you immune to malware
MPC does not guarantee asset safety if an external service fails
MPC reduces one specific class of risk: single-secret compromise.
This security model aligns with BASIS system design principles: deterministic execution, math-constrained operations, and state-machine risk controls.
3) User security best practices
Even with MPC:
secure your email account with strong authentication
secure your email account with a hardware security key (such as YubiKey) where your email provider supports it
avoid unknown links and unsolicited messages
avoid public Wi‑Fi for account access
verify the BASIS domain every time
4) Troubleshooting login
If you do not receive the 6-digit code:
check your spam or junk folder
wait a few minutes in case of delivery delay
confirm you entered the email address correctly
request a new code
If issues persist, contact [email protected].
