It argues that they solve different problems and that interoperability work should draw boundaries between them rather than unify them. For people working in self-sovereign identity (SSI) and adjacent standards. | Daniel Hardman | 1.0 | hardman-papers | research/papers/hardman-sentries-confessionals-vaults-and-envelopes | 1 | 1 |
