VeChain Secures New US Patent for Blockchain Identity Verification via NanoJClean

• VeChain gets U.S. patent for privacy-focused identity system that authenticates without storing user data.
• Latest patent strengthens blockchain use in finance and healthcare, where strict data laws apply.

VeChain was awarded a new patent in the United States on May 20, 2025, following in the footsteps of recent Intellectual Property victories. Its latest patent, “Method and device for implementing identity endorsement on blockchain,” fortifies the company’s foray into privacy-enhancing identity verification without storing individuals’ details on the blockchain directly.

This system aims to secure user information while still authenticating identities securely. The method has the potential to be very useful in sectors such as finance and healthcare, where rigorous top-level identity verification is required and must be aligned with international data protection laws.

Shanghai-based NanoJClean Technology, which was involved in the patent, contributed to VeChain’s technological advancement. The company highlighted that the method allows blockchain verification while keeping sensitive user information secure, an issue that has traditionally been the root of hesitation toward wider adoption in privacy areas.

Identity Management Gets Privacy Upgrade

VeChain already made headway in September 2024 with the securing of U.S. Patent No. 12,093,419 B2. In that patent, it explained ways in which user identity can be authenticated using encryption and blockchain while still preserving privacy. VeChain now has two patents aimed at solving the problem of user verification after the newly authorized method in 2025.

Prior patents have also extended into other fields. VeChain was granted Patent No. 12,118,129 B2 under NanoJClean on October 15, 2024, for developing a blockchain-based system for capturing temperature information in cold chain logistics. Such a system guarantees the reliability of temperature data in fields such as the pharmaceutical and distribution business, where data credibility is paramount.

VeChain was awarded another patent on May 14, 2024, aimed at a blockchain system for carbon trade. Such a system provides an authenticated, secure manner for dealing with exchanges for carbon credits and can assist in enhancing environmental clarity throughout the markets.

Technical Enhancements Drive Broader Network Plans

With an eye on the overall infrastructure, VeChain’s drive toward usability hasn’t rested on patents alone. The “VeChain Renaissance” protocol revamp, deployed in the earlier part of 2025, features an updated distribution mechanism for VTHO, enhanced EVM compatibility, and JSON-RPC support for enhanced interoperability.

The company has also revealed the “Stargate” update, the aim of which is enhancing scalability and governance, implying that VeChain is committed in the long term to ensuring network flexibility.

Security improvements go back to December 2024, when a patent for a Key Management System was awarded. The invention employs the use of a Hardware Security Module in order to generate and distribute transaction keys in secure manner, encrypting them for varying users in order to avoid misuse within multiple user environments.

Aside from technology, VeChain has made moves at the advisory and promotional end. It has recruited Dana White, the UFC President, into its advisory board in an effort to help the project gain footing in the mass market.
