Developers interested in an extra decentralized web platform
About Web5
Building an extra decentralized web that puts you in control of your data and identity. The web democratized the exchange of information, but it's missing a key layer: identity. We struggle to secure personal data with hundreds of accounts and passwords we can’t remember. On the web today, identity and personal data have become the property of third parties. Web5 brings decentralized identity and data storage to your applications. It lets devs focus on creating delightful user experiences, while returning ownership of data and identity to individuals.

VIDchain
Digital identity is not a new challenge. Since the beginning of the online revolution, validating with complete confidence the real identity of people in a digital environment has been a problem both for users, who have had their privacy and control over their personal data removed and for companies that have suffered the cost of inefficient and constant identification security failures. With VIDchain, we offer a decentralized self-rule identity (SSI) service based on Blockchain to provide people control over their identity and facilitate secure user access to online services. It improves processes and reduces identity verification costs. It implements secure identification processes and improves anti-fraud measures in compliance with eIDAS and GDPR. Based on standards that eliminate the need for hundreds of credentials. You can easily validate your digital identity with anyone you want.
