Polkassembly Registrar Application for kusama

Problem Statement:
- The current process for verifying on-chain identities in the Polkadot ecosystem is fragmented, overwhelming for new users, and disconnected from the governance and proposal creation interface.

Significance:
- On-chain identities are important for trust, accountability, and interoperability within the Kusama ecosystem.
- An integrated and user-friendly identity verification process will enhance transparency, security, and ease of interaction for participants.

Proposed Solution:
- The Polkassembly team aims to create a registrar application that automates proposal creation, provides education on proposal evaluation, verifies on-chain identities, and offers comprehensive user profiling with leaderboards and gamification for governance participants.
- The application will also ensure the verification of users and build security for funds requested from the treasury.

Expected Outcomes:
- The time required for identity registration and verification will be reduced by more than 75%, improving adoption and enabling more robust treasury management.
- Polkassembly will provide an interface for users to share their social and contact information, choose their verified address and display name, and verify their social handles.
- The success states of the verification process will be provided to users.
