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.

Grateful to have Jason Law of @evernym here to present our final keynote.
People ask us at @evernym when #SelfSovereignIdentity & #DecentralizedIdentity will take off in a meaningful way.. Well folks.. turn that dial to 11 (@IBMBlockchain @SovrinID). ps. amazing job @imogenheap! https://t.co/GETSrBggv7
Thew work Dr Manreet Nijjar MB ChB MRCP and @truu_id are doing is truly extraordinary. Register today for the free webinar to hear the details!
We anticipate the diversity of #decentralizedidentity use cases will grow well beyond our imagination! Here's a very useful one:

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.
