Doing Decentralized Identity Right with Kelvin Fichter

In this talk I'll be describing the Right Way to do decentralized identity: attestations. I'll explain how attestations are a fundamental building block for identity and how these attestations can be combined to derive useful information both on-chain and off-chain. I'll even get into Zero Knowledge proofs, this talk has a little bit of everything! And since theory is boring, I'll finish out the talk by showing off how the Optimism Collective is applying attestation-based identity to create a human-centric blockchain. https://twitter.com/kelvinfichter Kelvin Fichter Benevolent Chaos Monkey The Optimism Collective Hi, I'm Kelvin.
