DIDs represent a paradigm shift in how we think about digital identity, addressing its underlying structure.
Currently, our personal information is scattered across corporate and government databases, a model that leaves us vulnerable to data breaches and the misuse of our information by anyone who might have access to it.
DIDs, on the other hand, allow individuals to have full control over their credentials and data. Instead of relying on a third party to authenticate their identity, they can securely and privately prove their age, educational qualifications, or background without revealing unnecessary information and the resulting risks.
This technology, praised by many, is the foundation of a future where privacy and data control are priorities, and where DIDs offer a solution for the digital age, promising a more secure and user-centric future, where identity belongs to the individual and not exclusively to a corporation.
