Humanity deserves digital identity that is permanent, portable, private and completely secure; in other words: self-sovereign.
Shortcomings in the internet’s original design made this impossible, at a cost of trillions each year. Today, the invention of distributed ledger technology makes self-sovereign digital identity a possibility for the first time.
Now that self-sovereign identity is possible, it’s inevitable. And it’s going to change everything.

Credit Unions are out-innovating everyone else! Great work @CULedger @evernym #selfsovereignidentity https://t.co/BX6jjOzlOf
Whenever I spend time with @shaunbconway I’m reminded that, while often incredibly hard, this work is beyond worthwhile - it’s *necessary*. Change often comes slowly then all at once. Let’s keep cranking @ixoworld @evernym @trustlabtech @SovrinID 💪
$250 billion worth of fodder for those who, not unreasonably, ask the question, "why not just use a traditional database?"

#SSI is "hot topic" in 2019, according to ChainLink Research:
"Our current approach to ID management is broken. A year ago, we weren’t sure if SSID was going to be accepted quickly. Now it is looking a lot more promising."

Why did we invent, build, and open source an entirely new distributed ledger that’s engineered for the sole purpose of identity? That’s easy. It’s the only way to finally do identity right.
Digital identity today is entirely “siloed.” It forces every organization to become identity (and security) experts in order to know who (or what) they’re actually interacting with, both online and off. Managing many identities is not only an expensive hassle for organizations, it’s aggravating for people and a security nightmare for the Internet of Things, too.
Evernym has developed the world’s first publicly available distributed ledger dedicated to solving this problem – Sovrin – and we’ve donated its code to Hyperledger (project Indy), making it available for everyone, everywhere.
