Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) v1.0 Becomes a W3C Recommendation
I was initially pretty hyped when I read the abstract for DIDs, bookmarked the spec and read it later. The "spec" is a bunch of buzzwords and vague generic "concepts". The DIDs themselves mean basically nothing, it's the "methods" that actually must have their own specification and actually "do something".<p>Another feeling you can quickly get from DIDs is that they're blockchain centric.<p>The entire concept is "jack of all trades, master of none". I actually hope to be wrong, and see some more fully fledged implementations/examples of real world use-cases, because I love the idea of federated/decentralized identity.
