Decentralized Identity
An approach where the identifier and the claims about it are held by the subject and checked by the verifier, instead of living inside one provider's account system. DID and verifiable credentials are the pieces that make it workable.
-
Wallet
The thing that holds the keys, and increasingly the credentials, on the holder's side. Naming it after money is a historical accident: signing in and presenting a credential use the same keys as paying does.
