Just like cryptocurrency, the subject of DIDs is fascinating and mind-boggling. After dabbling with my little Ethereum project for a while now, my curiosity about DIDs peaked, and I decided to finally start reading about it. Once again, I’m overwhelmed with the deluge of ideas and theories, and I can barely tread water. I was finally able to grab a hold of something that seemed more tangible to me, in the form of a project called Idena. Basically, it’s a blockchain that helps to forge DIDs by administering a Turing-complete test to all applicants on a scheduled basis. It’s an interesting approach to creating true DIDs, and it might just work. I would recommend that everyone else give it a try, since that’s the only way to really vet such an experiment.

Now, the hard part: proving that I’m a human being to this blockchain. I hope that I pass. If I fail, I’ll be dreadfully disappointed, and I’ll have to watch out for any blade runners that might be on my trail.
