Decentralized Identity Foundation
On May 22 at Consensus 2017 the formation of the Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF) was announced:
- Conensus 2017 - Building an Foundation for Decentralized Identity (video)
- Decentralized Identity Foundation (DIF) [G] [T] [B]
A key piece of the decentralized identity equation is how people, organizations, and devices can be identified and located without centralized systems of identifiers (e.g. email addresses). DIF members are actively working on protocols and implementations that enable creation, resolution, and discovery of decentralized identifiers and names across decentralized systems, like blockchains and distributed ledgers.

members sharing the goal of “building an open source decentralized identity ecosystem for people, organizations, apps, and devices” include:
