Recap

The presentation focused on the keys to mainstream DID adoption:

  • Focus on practical business value
  • Better data protection vs debates on the value of decentralized/centralized systems
  • Stronger Zero Trust security vs details on blockchain, DIDs, and, ZKPs and ledgers
  • Easy password elimination and superior privacy vs sociological discussion on SSI and data economy
  • Trust as strategic brand advantage vs a long walk into new governance operation
  • Verifiable Credentials to accelerate service delivery and reduce cost of IAM
  • Optimize existing systems incrementally

First, I want to address the elephant in the room. Identiverse was an in-person conference, the first major technology conference that Ive heard of since the pandemic started. I was a bit spooked when I thought about attending. I reviewed their Covid-19 FAQ page carefully and was impressed by how they were planning to make sure attendees were safe.

  • Identiverse Recap: Strategizing for the Future of Identity SecureID Project

  • Dark Matter Labs and IOTA foundation launch Persistent Selv

    an exploratory demo app that leverages the possibilities opened up by self-sovereign digital identities (SSIDs) and data wallets, to help individuals plan their environmental legacy. Persistent Selv attempts to investigate possibilities for fostering individual long-term thinking, to make us aware of our interdependencies with the past and the future, understanding how our actions today might contribute to the legacies we are leaving behind to future generations.

  • My.D EuropeChain

    What makes My.D unique is it holds the capability to act as a digital wallet, manage multiple identities, and share credentials. A tool designed and scaled for user transparency and authentication. Furthermore, it can be tailored according to the business needs, and individual customer needs too. It is designed on open standards, which affirms its interoperability. Anyone can access it from anywhere and is not dependent on the existing single authority. It could be verified across multiple channels.

  • Summing up Badge Summit WeAreOpenCoop

  1. Make sure people in the Keep Badges Weird community felt respected and recognised

  2. Help potential community members join and be able to interact with the community

  3. Raise awareness of Open Recognition (i.e. non-credential use of badges)

It was mentioned in nearly every analyst session, and I couldnt help but notice the number of vendors who have incorporated this concept into their marketing and their booth displays.
