Inspired by @peacekeeper's [blockchain-identity](https://github.com/peacekeeper/blockchain-identity/) list on GitHub, I began working on my own **curated list of resources related to decentralized identity**.
I saw that decentralized identity has had a long history, and that it could be _the_ blockchain use-case, beyond currency. I knew this community had a need for this organization of it's information, and that I could find my way into some profitable ventures doing so.
At some point, I connected with Kaliya @identitywoman who has ever been working on similar efforts, to map out the organizations and protocols surrounding decentralized-identity, and has become something of an editorial advisor. Juan @by_caballero has gotten his hands dirty working on this site and related projects, sometimes assisting in curation.
A few others have become friends to this effort, even if they haven't physically contributed to the site. Among those is [Kyle Den Hartog](https://kyledenhartog.com/) who financially supported some of my work in curating peer-to-peer histories, which may eventually be adapted for this site.
If you'd like to participate, feel free to reach out on twitter (@DecentralizeID or @infominer33), by email (info@identosphere.net), or send a carrier pigeon according to the customary protocols.
You can always [find us on GitHub](https://github.com/Decentralized-ID/), and contribute directly, but you may find these instructions helpful to get started.
There is an "[Edit this page](https://github.com/Decentralized-ID/decentralized-id.github.io/blob/master/_posts/2020-01-10-welcome.md)" button at the bottom of each page. This makes it easy for you to get started adding a link here and there, needing only a [GitHub](https://github.com) account.
