@Drummond Reed


Drummond went through a stack that he had specially prepared for explaining SSI from the Sovrin perspective but was broad enough for the space. Looking at the video uploaded from the meeting will give you a good idea about the talk.

Some highlights:

  • Clear that the Indy / Sovrin stack was an Identity Management system and it will interact with ledgers created for other purposes.
  • Kiva.org is already using it
  • What is on the ledger is restricted. 
  • BC.Gov is an Enterprise scale wallet in the form of the orgbook (although called a registry)
  • Connections are in the form of Agent to Agent protocols- a ton of work ongoing
  • Main work is in maintaining the integrity of wallet to wallet connections in an asynchronous environment with mobile devices that are not guaranteed to be always on.
  • RZ asked whether there is a live photo attestation protocol: In response DR asserted that there no such protocol available currently the three supported are straight JSON-LD, JSON-JWT and JSON-ZK 
  • What about credential formats are there schemas (ontology & taxonomy around this? JW)
    • There is some work going on in this area. But nothing concrete, VB brought up MAS and some other basic taxonomies including Japanese Govt basic KYC schemas and processes
    • The credential Registry can share its formats (the orgbook) which can be the beginnings of a schema for organisations- What about LEI?
    • JW will give a talk on Ontology & Schema @ rebooting Web Of trust (RWOT)
