Introduction: Understanding the Risks in Cross-Chain Transactions
According to Chainalysis data from 2025, a staggering 73% of cross-chain bridges are vulnerable to hacks and attacks. This has raised concerns in the decentralized finance (DeFi) sector, specifically regarding the safety of biometric KYC systems like HIBT. These systems aim to enhance security, but as we dive deeper, are they truly reliable?
What is Biometric KYC in DeFi?
Think of biometric KYC as a sophisticated digital security guard. In a physical world, we have bouncers at bars who check IDs; similarly, biometric KYC verifies user identities using unique traits like fingerprints or facial recognition. It’s like a local market vendor who only lets in familiar faces, ensuring secure transactions within DeFi systems.
How Does Cross-Chain Interoperability Work?
Cross-chain interoperability is like exchanging currencies at an international airport. When you travel, you need to convert your local currency to spend in another country. Cross-chain bridges allow different blockchain networks to communicate and transact with one another. However, the introduction of HIBT DeFi biometric KYC raises the question: Can these systems truly safeguard our transactions?

Zero-Knowledge Proof Applications in Biometric KYC
Zero-knowledge proofs work like a magician’s trick—they confirm you have something without revealing the actual item. In the same vein, with biometric KYC, users can prove their identity without exposing personal data. Imagine you want to buy a ticket from a vendor. Instead of showing your ID, a simple nod could confirm your identity and let you through.
What to Expect from DeFi Regulations in Singapore by 2025?
By 2025, Singapore is anticipated to tighten its regulatory framework around DeFi, similar to how traffic rules have evolved over time to ensure smoother flow. The Monetary Authority of Singapore (MAS) is likely to implement stricter measures on biometric KYC systems within the HIBT framework. This shift suggests that while innovation thrives, protecting consumers remains paramount.
Conclusion & Call to Action
