I recently came across the PKD DID Method when browsing through updates to Ceramic.
In short, it is a DID method meant for blockchain wallets.
Throughout the testnet, we have used 3ID connect and did:3
as the main identifier for users. While we are aligned with Ceramic’s vision for linking blockchain wallets together into a single identity, using 3ID has introduced a lot of UX questions, since parcels are owned by ETH wallets and not 3IDs.
- Should the Cadastre show parcels owned by all wallets under a 3ID, or just the connected one?
- Do users understand what 3ID is?
- Do we show 3ID profile information in the Cadastre?
- What happens if a smart contract owns a parcel?
- and more
Perhaps instead of using did:3
we could use did:pkh
. This would clear up much of the UX questions around 3ID connect. I am starting this topic to see what others think and to have a place to post updates.
Note this is not the highest priority right now in development and did:pkh
is still very early.
