The Sovrin\Indy\DID Foundations, Architecture, and Ecosystem -DRAFT
// Will gather here all resources that specifically relate to Sovrin, and Indy. Gradually this file will grow with Sovrin related material. While 'awesome-decentralized-id' will be gradually shed of some resources which are more specific to sovrin\indy and less so to the greater decentralized-id ecosystem.

IDEMix -Zero Knowledge Proof's in Evernym\Indy^
Our zero-knowledge proofs are part of the Idemix protocol, where they are used to prove the possession of Camenisch-Lysyanskaya credentials. We also use zero-knowledge proofs in the revocation protocol, which is based on cryptographic accumulators. —What Zero Knowledge Poof Algorithm is used in Sovrin?
Identity Mixer is not directly (re)implemented by Sovrin, but its cryptographic foundations are very similar, and Sovrin’s implementation includes most of its extended features (predicates, multi-credential, revocation, advanced issuance…). One of the researchers who helped to create Identity Mixer is on Sovrin’s Technical Governance Board and has offered insight to keep the implementations aligned on goals and methods. —How is IDEMix Implemented?

DID Adoption ^
- @ChristopherA on DID adoption
"22/ Over a dozen companies and organizations, using multiple blockchains (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Hyperledger, etc.), have committed to deploying DIDs, including IBM, Microsoft, Digital Bazaar, Consensys, Evernym, Learning Machine, British Columbia, and more:" —How blockchain could solve the internet privacy problem
- Veres One DID Method 1.0 — a permissionless public ledger designed specifically for the creation and management of decentralized identifiers (DIDs)
- Blockstack DID Spec[*]
- Spidchain [wp]
- "offers a platform for self-sovereign identity, including desktop and mobile apps for end-users. It uses Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) - backed by optionally Bitcoin or Ethereum - to implement a marketplace for verifiable claims. The Spidchain applications allow individuals to create, recover, and revoke DIDs, to authenticate, to sign and verify files and claims, and more."
