#### About ION
* [ION 101-401: what is ION (the public, permissionless DID network), how can you use it today, and what comes next](https://iiw.idcommons.net/3A/_ION_101-401:_what_is_ION_(the_public,_permissionless_DID_network),_how_can_you_use_it_today,_and_what_comes_next) 2021-05-06 Daniel Buchner (Microsoft)
> - Decentralization of did:ion if anchoring transactions are batched by an operator: its possible to choose the operator or to incur the cost of anchoring the transactions. Furthermore, the operator doesnt gain access to the private key.
> - ION delivers: massive scale, cost efficiency (despite running on the bitcoin network - best case if bitcoin a transaction costs 100 USD one action costs 1 cent), decentralized & flexible, decentralized registries
> - ION has a type system so that DIDs can be used, e.g. for software packages, vehicles, … This makes it possible to make the centralized data repositories that we rely on today, npm registries etc., to be fully decentralized. This is a Sidetree feature that is currently only used by ION.
> - DIF is currently working on personal data stores. Expected impact on private messaging, social media, gig services, ..
> - ION is live and in production today
> - Ion-tools is a selection of tools to interact with the ION network: [https://github.com/decentralized-identity/ion-tools](https://github.com/decentralized-identity/ion-tools)
> - Resilience of ION: Its pointed out that not only Bitcoin needs to survive attacks but also the IPFS network as both are required for ION to work properly. With Bitcoin it looks unlikely that its currently possible to reverse transactions on the network. However, with IPFS data can be unpinned and potentially disappear from the network.

> We are excited to share that v1 of [ION](https://identity.foundation/ion/) is complete and has been launched on Bitcoin mainnet. We have deployed an ION node to our production infrastructure and are working together with other companies and organizations to do so as well. ION does not rely on centralized entities, trusted validators, or special protocol tokens ION answers to no one but you, the community. Because ION is an open, permissionless system, anyone can run an ION node, in fact the more nodes in operation, the stronger the network becomes. Development of ION, and the Sidetree standard ION is based on, takes place in the [Decentralized Identity Foundation](https://identity.foundation/) (DIF). Read on to learn how you can integrate ION, DIDs, and Verifiable Credentials in your applications and services.

> Microsoft presented in May 2019 in New York the first decentralized infrastructure implementation by a major tech company that is built directly on the Bitcoin blockchain called Ion. Daniel Buchner, who is leading this initiative at Microsoft and a founding member of the Decentralized Identity Foundation, will discuss the culture at Microsoft, how decentralized identity works with Bitcoin and what you need to know to use the Bitcoin blockchain for non-financial transactions.
>
> Ion handles the decentralized identifiers, which control the ability to prove you own the keys to this data.
