# Manager Identity

Alvara provides optional identity verification tools that help managers build trust with investors. While all management activity is transparent on-chain, connecting off-chain identity signals helps build credibility.

## X (Twitter) Verification

Link your X account to your Alvara profile:

1. Navigate to your Portfolio page
2. Click the X verification option
3. Complete the OAuth flow to authorize the connection
4. Your X profile name and handle will display on your manager profile

You can unlink your X account at any time from the same interface.

## Gitcoin Passport

Gitcoin Passport is a decentralized identity verification tool. It aggregates multiple identity signals (social accounts, on-chain activity, biometric checks) into a single humanity score.

To connect:

1. Create a Passport at [app.passport.xyz](https://app.passport.xyz)
2. Complete verification stamps to build your score
3. Your score is automatically detected when you use the Alvara platform

### Passport Score Badges

| Score | Badge  | Meaning                        |
| ----- | ------ | ------------------------------ |
| 15+   | Bronze | Basic identity verification    |
| 25+   | Silver | Moderate identity verification |
| 35+   | Gold   | Strong identity verification   |

## Viewing Other Profiles

Any wallet's portfolio and manager profile is publicly viewable. Navigate to `/portfolio/{walletAddress}` to view any address's holdings, managed BSKTs, and identity information.

This transparency is intentional. In a permissionless system, reputation is built through verifiable on-chain actions and optional identity signals.
