Awesome Self-Sovereign Identity Awesome

A curated list of self-sovereign identity resources.

Self-sovereign identity (SSI) is a term used to describe the digital movement that recognizes an individual should own and control their identity without the intervening administrative authorities. SSI allows people to interact in the digital world with the same freedom and capacity for trust as they do in the offline world (by The Sovrin Foundation).

๐ŸŽ“ Tutorials & Guides

๐ŸŽฎ Demo's

High level:

  • Animo Demo - Our own demo lets you pick a character and experience digital verification through their world. See how easy it is to work, travel or study using verifiable credentials!
  • Evernym Demo - In this demo you'll explore digital credentials with Alice, who just landed her dream job and is preparing to buy her first house using the Connect Me App.
  • Lissi Demo - Check into a hotel or enroll in a class in Muster University to experience our favorite wallet for credential storage from our friends at Lissi.
  • Uport Demo - Before Veramo and Serto, Uport created this lovely demo in which you play around in a city where verifiable credentials are everywhere.
  • Selv demo - At Iota they do it all, including digital identity. This demo uses real partnerships to show you how verifiable credentials will impact day to day life.
  • walt.id Demo - Issue and verify credentials via the walt.id portal.
  • SSI Snap demo - In this demo, you will be able to obtain a credential presenting proof of competence that you can later use in DAO governance on our extended Snapshot.

Low level:
