DID Registry

Hypersign Decentralized Identifiers (Hypersign DID) comply and is built on top of . It implements .

Note: did:hid DID scheme is yet to be officially registered on .

Decentralised Identifiers are cryptographically-verifiable identifiers which are stored on a decentralised ledger, which enables users to own and manage their ID.

Syntax of `did:hid` method

The did:hid method are as follows:

did                = "did:" method-name ":" [chain-namespace] ":" method-specific-id
method-name        = "hid"
chain-namespace    = ALPHA / DIGIT
method-specific-id = Minimum 32 Length alphanumeric string
id-char            = ALPHA / DIGIT

Description of ID segments

did - Document Identifier of DID Document
hid - Method name
<chain-namespace> - (Optional) Name of the blockchain where the VC status is registered. It is omitted for the document registered on mainnet chain
<method-specific-id> - Alpha-numeric string of minimum 32 character length
