Awesome Self-Sovereign Identity, Decentralized-ID, and Blockchain-ID related resources.
Draft
Collaboration Welcome.
Imagine a world where you are in direct control of your personal information; a world where you can limit and control how much information you share while retaining the ability to transact in the world. This is self-sovereign identity, and it is already here. Blockchain is the underlying technology paving the path to self-sovereign identity through decentralized networks. It ensures privacy and trust, where transactions are secure, authenticated and verifiable and endorsed by relevant, permissioned participants,'—Jerry Cuomo - IBM

Self-Sovereign
RWoT
Description = "The Web of Trust is a buzzword for a new model of decentralized self-sovereign identity. It’s a phrase that dates back almost twenty-five years, the classic definition derives from PGP.\n\nBut some use it as a term to include self-sovereign identity authentication & verification, certificate validation, and reputation assessment, while the vibrant blockchain community is also drawing new attention to the concept we aim to reboot it."

- Civic
- Proof of Authority
- Blockstack — github — forum— blog — twitter
- a network of computers that collectively maintain a global registry of domain names, public keys, and cryptographic hashes. With this registry, Blockstack serves as a decentralized domain name system (DNS) and a decentralized public key infrastructure (PKI).
- Onename — "a product built on Blockstack that allows people to register identities"
- Shocard — "Blockchain-Based Mobile Identity Platform"
- Danube Tech — digital identity and personal data, including personal agents, semantic graphs, and blockchain identity.
- Cambridge Blockchain — Blockchain for validating secure digital identity documents, processing electronic signatures, and recording transactions."
- Authenteq — enables users to create their own sovereign digital IDs which are stored encrypted in a blockchain.
- JLinc — registers cryptographic public keys on the Stellar blockchain.—#peacekeeper"

- Banqu —"focuses on establishing 'economic identity' for those who are excluded from the global economy."
- Vida Identity — "enables distributed key revocation and reissuance. Access to data is always permissioned across applications and services."
- ÆTERNITY — github — Is focusing on improved smart contract capabilities such as better scalability and easier integration of off-chain data. It offers an identity architecture where every account has a unique ID number, and unique names can be registered and linked to arbitrary data such as addresses on the blockchain. Schema.org's data structures are used for representing data about persons and organizations."
- Schema — a collaborative, community activity with a mission to create, maintain, and promote schemas for structured data on the Internet. Schema.org vocabulary can be used with many different encodings, including RDFa, Microdata and JSON-LD. These vocabularies cover entities, relationships between entities and actions, and can easily be extended through a well-documented extension model. Over 10 million sites use Schema.org to markup their web pages and email messages. Many applications from Google, Microsoft, Pinterest, Yandex and others already use these vocabularies to power rich, extensible experiences."
- Spidchain — whitepaper — "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."
- Reddcoin — Redd-ID — forum — PoSV whitepaper — a naming service that allows usernames to be registered on the Reddcoin blockchain. "]
- [Pro-civis]
(https://procivis.ch) — "e-government as a service" platform called "eID+". It enables citizens to get an official, electronic Citizen-ID on a mobile app, which can be used for secure and convenient login to websites, and the electronic signing and safe storage of documents. Verification providers such as state authorities can use a web backend or an API to attest to the correctness of a citizen's personal data.
- The platform includes the Vetri wallet and marketplace. 'Earn extra income and rewards by joining the data economy.'"
- Cicada
- a Dapp platform built for a "direct democracy" use case. It envisions using iris scans to generate decentralized universal identifiers ("HUIDs") for every human on the planet, a method referred to as "biocryptics". "HUIDs" can have "sub-IDs" to support selective disclosure. PII can be stored in an "info wallet". Key parts of the system also include smart contracts, zero-knowledge proofs, mixnets, and more."
