Authentication

GHOSTS are real, and they're in your house. They're also in your phone. Creepy!

NFC Technology

Each physical GHOST has a non-removable, embedded NFC chip on the underside of the ashtray. Each chip is encrypted, and has a key-value pair stored within our database to ensure authenticity of each piece. This means the data on the chip cannot simply be replicated on another chip to false authenticity. Once a chip has been written, it cannot be overwritten.

In the future, we will allow third parties to also provide authentication methods, allowing for GHOSTS to be authenticated by trusted entities other than MIDNIGHT.
