Privacy-first infrastructure provider Human.tech has announced the integration of Wallet-as-a-Protocol (WaaP) on the Sui blockchain. The rollout introduces a fully decentralized wallet execution layer on Sui, giving developers a new way to onboard users with seedless, self-custodial wallets.

According to a media statement, the integration allows developers to embed wallets directly into applications using familiar login methods such as email, phone, or Google, while ensuring that funds remain inaccessible to third parties. Unlike conventional wallet-as-a-service models, WaaP is an open protocol infrastructure that is free to use and free from vendor lock-in.

By running on Ika, a censorship-resistant coordination layer native to Sui, transaction policies are enforced by smart contracts rather than server logic. This delivers the convenience of managed wallets with the resilience of hardware-grade custody.

Speaking on the privacy-first design, Nanak Nihal Khalsa, co-founder of Human.tech, told Bitcoin.com News that WaaP deliberately avoids know-your-customer (KYC) requirements to preserve user sovereignty.

“WaaP doesn’t perform KYC, and that’s by design. What it does is return key ownership to the user. By splitting signing authority between the user and a decentralized network, WaaP ensures that no single party, not even Human.tech, can control funds or compromise user privacy,” Khalsa said.

He added that self-custody is about more than just control; it enables users to generate identity proofs, encrypt data, and interact privately across applications because they hold the keys. This, he noted, is the foundation of WaaP’s privacy-first approach—empowering individuals to selectively prove who they are or what they are allowed to do without surrendering unnecessary personal information.

Khalsa also addressed the challenge of recovery without backdoors. In scenarios where a user loses access to a social login, WaaP provides safeguards without introducing centralized vulnerabilities. Users can link multiple login providers to reduce reliance on a single Web2 account and can export their sovereign key share for safekeeping. That share is never stored by WaaP, nor is it exposed to Ika or any server, ensuring recovery remains entirely user-controlled.

The Human.tech infrastructure reportedly supports nearly 3 million verified users, has issued more than 43 million credentials, and secures over $500 million in value. Extending WaaP to Sui—currently ranked among the top 15 chains by total value locked and top eight by DEX volume—brings this infrastructure to one of the cryptocurrency industry’s fastest-growing ecosystems.

“Sui developers can now offer seamless, seedless self-custody without the risks of traditional wallet services,” said Shady El Damaty, CEO of Holonym Foundation. “With Ika’s decentralized security layer, there’s no compromise between user experience and true ownership.”

Looking ahead, WaaP sets the stage for programmable accounts and delegated execution, enabling automated workflows and safe, AI-driven on-chain activity. As agents increasingly interact with blockchain systems, WaaP’s architecture ensures scoped delegation while preserving ultimate human authority.

“Embedded wallets shouldn’t mean surrendering ownership,” said Evan Cheng, co-founder and CEO of Mysten Labs. “With WaaP built on Ika and native to Sui, developers and users gain a fundamentally new way to access the network. This is a major win for the ecosystem.”

• What is WaaP on Sui? WaaP is a decentralized wallet execution layer that lets developers embed seedless, self‑custodial wallets into apps using familiar logins.
• How does WaaP protect privacy?
  By splitting signing authority between users and the Ika network, WaaP ensures no single party—including Human.tech—can control funds or access personal data.
• What happens if a login is lost?
  Users can link multiple providers or export their sovereign key share, keeping recovery user‑controlled without centralized backdoors.
• Why is this important for Sui’s ecosystem?
  With nearly 3M verified users already on Human.tech, WaaP drives secure onboarding and fuels demand for Sui blockspace across global markets.
