Abstract
Aspects of the present disclosure are directed to managing a metadata vault with a non-fungible token. Implementations can mint a non-fungible token (NFT) that corresponds to a tangible person or thing. A metadata vault can store metadata about the person or thing, and the NFT can secure access to the metadata vault. For example, the NFT can include a credential (e.g., public key) that comprises access permission for the private vault. In some implementations, a private key that corresponds to the public key can be provide a user, such as an authenticated user, additional access to the private vault. For example, the public key can provide a first level of access to the private vault (e.g., either read access or write access) and the private key can provide a second level of access to the private vault (e.g., both read access or write access).
