Description

I have read the considerations about avoiding turning webauthn into a super cookie but the whole point of biometrics is to be able to identify a user on many devices. So imagine the following use case. You are developing a wallet for universal basic income. To avoid malicious behavior you want to make sure a user can register only once and can't get new wallets from new devices. Is there a way to achieve that while maintaining the security per device? Is it possible to avoid tracking while covering this use case?
