## ERC-EIP * [ERC: Lightweight Identity #1056](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/1056) —This ERC describes a standard for creating and updating identities with a limited use of blockchain resources. An identity can have an unlimited number of delegates and attributes associated with it. Identity creation is as simple as creating a regular key pair ethereum account, which means that it's fee (no gas costs) and all ethereum accounts are valid identities. Furthermore this ERC is fully DID compliant. * [ERC1056 ❤ ERC780 — an open identity and claims protocol for Ethereum](https://medium.com/uport/erc1056-erc780-an-open-identity-and-claims-protocol-for-ethereum-aef7207bc744) * [EIP-780 Ethereum Claims Registry](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/780) * [EIP712](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/f29527ab39357548b06b29e937a48f06ae099de7/EIPS/eip-712.md) - This is a standard for hashing and signing of typed structured data * [ERC-1484 Digital Identity Aggregator](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/1495) —A protocol for aggregating digital identity information that's broadly interoperable with existing, proposed, and hypothetical future digital identity standards. * [EIP-1078](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/blob/ed621645c8f3bc5756492f327cda015f35d9f8da/EIPS/eip-1078.md) - This presents a method to replace the usual signup/login design pattern with a minimal ethereum native scheme, that doesn’t require passwords, backing up private keys nor typing seed phrases. * [ERC-1077 and ERC-1078: The magic of executable signed messages](https://ethereum-magicians.org/t/erc-1077-and-erc-1078-the-magic-of-executable-signed-messages-to-login-and-do-actions/351) * [ERC-EIP on GitHub](eth-id-github.html#eip---erc) **>>** ### ERC725-735 * [ERC725](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/725) * The following describes standard functions for a unique identifiable proxy account to be used by humans, groups, organisations, objects and machines * [ERC735](https://github.com/ethereum/EIPs/issues/735) - The following describes standard functions for adding, removing and holding of claims. - These claims can attested from third parties (issuers) or self attested. * [Origin partners on ERC725](https://coinjournal.net/origin-protocol-partners-on-new-erc-725-alliance-to-promote-the-adoption-of-blockchain-based-identity-standard) * [Managing Identity with a UI—ERC-725](https://medium.com/originprotocol/managing-identity-with-a-ui-for-erc-725-5c7422b38c09) * [Ethereum ERC725 Blockchain Based, Self-Sovereign Identity Management](https://bitcoinexchangeguide.com/ethereum-erc725-blockchain-based-self-sovereign-identity-management/) * [erc725alliance.org](https://erc725alliance.org) ## uPort ![](https://i.imgur.com/sPAP2g3.png) * [uPort](https://www.uport.me/) [[**G**](https://github.com/uport-project/)] [[**T**](https://twitter.com/uport_me)] * [Ethereum studio ConsenSys launches digital IDs and assets secured on Ubuntu phones](http://www.ibtimes.co.uk/ethereum-studio-consensys-launches-internet-people-digital-ids-assets-secured-unbuntu-phones-1542620) * [Year in Review.
