decentralized identity

Decentralized identity is a system where individuals have more control over their personal information without relying on a central authority, like a government or corporation. Instead of data being stored on a single server, their identity details are kept in a secure, distributed network, allowing them to share verified information selectively. This approach enhances privacy, reduces the risk of data theft, and empowers individuals to manage their digital identities directly. Essentially, it puts you in charge of your personal data, making online interactions more secure and private while maintaining necessary trust.
