$ETH Ethereum Founder Vitalik Proposes Pluralistic Digital Identity Systems
#ETH co-founder Vitalik Buterin warns that single digital IDs could destroy #pseudonymity despite zero-
knowledge protections.
Projects like World ID with 10 million users risk creating trackable single-identity systems.
Platforms could force users into one public identity, eliminating separate pseudonymous profiles.
This exposes users to government surveillance and employer monitoring, according to the $ETH creator.
Buterin rejects proof-of-wealth systems that exclude poor user concentrate power among the wealthy
Pluralistic identity systems with multiple authorities offer the best realistic #privacy solution.
These could use social-graph verification or multiple ID providers preventing monopolistic control.
The goal merges one-per-person schemes with social networks to bootstrap diverse global identity.
