Meh. Nobody’s going to use it. Microsoft abandoned did:ion, another BTC like method. The did community has moved on from trying to use BTC or any type of ledger for did docs.

Yeah I agree, I don’t see this going anywhere in terms of use as enterprise identity is already a nightmare and this does nothing to make it easier, but we are gonna see Saylor’s rhetoric shift with this and the inscriptooors are already jumping on it saying he’s validated their horseshit

The doc does reference did:ion

Saylor is exploring the utility value of BTC. No harm in that. The DID community tried this years ago with ledgers. For identity, a ledger is just another database. The real problem is binding a random identifier to a real-world reputation, not having a self-signed immutable public key.
