Decentralized Identifiers

Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) are a new way of creating and managing digital identities without relying on a central authority like a government or company. They are unique digital IDs stored securely on a blockchain or similar distributed system, giving individuals more control over their personal information. With DIDs, users can verify who they are to others and share data securely, reducing risks like identity theft. This approach enables more privacy, security, and independence in online interactions, empowering users to manage and share their identity information selectively and confidently.
