| hardman-comparison-acdcs-and-merkle-tree-certificates | paper | Comparison: ACDCs and Merkle Tree Certificates | https://dhh1128.github.io/papers/acdc-and-mtc.html | Daniel Hardman | active | 2026-10-15 | 2026-01-06 | 2026 | practitioner | informative | public | A paper by Daniel Hardman comparing Authentic Chained Data Containers (ACDCs), with the Key Event Receipt Infrastructure (KERI), and Merkle Tree Certificates (MTCs), a proposed evolution of the web public key infrastructure (WebPKI). It is organized by function: what each commits to and proves, freshness and revocation, operational cost, post-quantum readiness and standardization. It states that it is not a bake-off and is written for readers fluent in one of the two worlds. | Daniel Hardman | 1.1 | hardman-papers | research/papers/hardman-comparison-acdcs-and-merkle-tree-certificates | 1 | 1 |
