description: Learn about how individual identity is represented in the Optimism Collective.
---

## Individual Identity

The Optimism Collective represents individuals using unique identifiers generated through the [Farcaster protocol id registry](https://docs.farcaster.xyz/reference/contracts/reference/id-registry). This system ensures a secure approach to identity management within the collective.

### Registering a User ID

To obtain a unique identifier:

1. Use the **[Farcaster Id Gateway](https://docs.farcaster.xyz/reference/contracts/reference/id-gateway)**
2. Use the Warpcast app, which:

- Creates a new custody address
- Acts as a wallet

### Making Attestations

When you make attestations about individuals:

* Leave the recipient address blank
* Enter the users id into the attestation metadata
