All solutions result in further compromises and result in new problems. To understand the problems, we need to understand how this works. The following diagram shows the verifiable credential (VC) […]
Implement Compound Proof BBS+ verifiable credentials using ASP.NET Core and MATTR
This article shows how Zero Knowledge Proofs BBS+ verifiable credentials can be used to verify credential subject data from two separate verifiable credentials implemented in ASP.NET Core and MATTR. The ZKP BBS+ verifiable credentials are issued and stored on a digital wallet using a Self-Issued Identity Provider (SIOP) and OpenID Connect. A compound proof presentation […]
