IdentitiesV2

Storage Map v233 → v411 Changed in v411

Identity metadata for coldkey accounts (v2).

Queried by: validatorsdelegatorswalletsanalytics

The Big Picture

V2 of the identity system. Stores display names, contact info, and other metadata for coldkey accounts. Essential for building human-readable interfaces and validator discovery tools. Legacy Identities storage was removed at v334.

Use Cases

Display account names and info
Build account directories
Verify account identity before delegating
