As the FCA's consultation on Open Finance closes and in the wake of the DCMS statement on Digital Identity, I consider a vision for a route ahead. vinesolutions.co.uk/a-vision-for-o… @TheFCA @DCMS

I am delighted that @Origo_Services have donated their profile to Kantara @KantaraNews and hope that it will stimulate interest in the UMA and Fintech communities - another step to putting users and their data control at the centre of design.

I've commented on a David Birch article on open finance on LinkedIn - perhaps you might want to comment on my comment if you like the above? linkedin.com/feed/update/ur…

I am supporting @AlzResearchUK’s campaign calling on government to deliver on its promise to double funding for dementia research. alzheimersresearchuk.org/about-us/our-i… Extract from 2019 manifesto:

And the 24 hr Doc-athlon made it into British Triathlon news. Still time to support international medics MSF Covid19. britishtriathlon.org/news/junior-do…

My daughter, NHS DR Lydia is doing a 24 hr Doc-Athlon for Medecins Sans Frontieres Covid19 with 3 Dr friends within lockdown rules to help care for people around the globe. #4DR24HR justgiving.com/fundraising/Bi…

So we 'know' amazon and google 'smile' and 'gorge' on our personal data and hence our lives. Is it really acceptable that our local government actively helps google and others do this? brave.com/ukcouncilsrepo…

Why is metadata 'a distant shore'? More considerations on the importance of metadata. This time I argue that it really isn't difficult to start incrementally and benefits will come for users and for services which make up an eco-system. vinesolutions.co.uk/2020/01/23/why…

Thank you for mentioning my contribution. It was an honour to be an independent advisor to @DigitalIDScots, and a pleasure to share ideas with you all last Friday.

Thank you @KennyBirney - very kind. It was a pleasure to independently advise @DigitalIDScots and consider the future of identity, trust and attributes. For #secureservicedesign, please see vinesolutions.co.uk/services/.

Meta-data and Prorogation - I consider the connection, and how to avoid 'walking into a room as if with a blank piece of paper'. vinesolutions.co.uk/2019/09/24/met…

@avocoidentity @trbouma @JoeAndrieu @Steve_Lockstep @trbouma @avocoidentity Agree, I hope a balanced heterogeneous ecosystem will soon be empowering users.

Heard recently from reputable identerati: - Self Sovereign Identity #SSI won't replace Govt ID - No one individual is sovereign over each relationship - centralization is not as bad as hierarchies - there is no artifact called "identity" in SSI. MyPOV: Words matter. #DID

Welcoming a previous report on #blockchain and #ssi eublockchainforum.eu/sites/default/… which comments on #eIDAS, and a new discussion paper ec.europa.eu/futurium/en/ei…. IMO needs to consider multiple DIDs (not eidas certs) and issue of Verifiable Claims *BY* eID schemes.

How to integrate DID/VCred into existing relying party ecosystem? Perhaps one way will emerge from this work. Using OIDC's Self Issued provider. One to watch. medium.com/decentralized-…

@trbouma @windley @avocoidentity @Kyle_DH @streetcred_id And, in certain cases, am i correct in stating, the third party who provides standard trust might be 'an identity trust provider'?

@windley @avocoidentity @Kyle_DH @streetcred_id @mikepegman Take 2

Amazing that I am having a direct private #DID-based communication with @windley while he is at #EIC19 using @streetcred_id

@trbouma @avocoidentity @ChristopherA @dsearls @heathervescent @IdentityWoman That's a helpful sheet mapping global ID processes. And - do we need smart contracts for each SSI which on demand asserts a STANDARD identity suitable for the relying party which wants to consume it?

@avocoidentity @mikepegman @ChristopherA @dsearls @heathervescent @IdentityWoman Going down that path with #trustedprocesses. Have a look-see here. docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
