Introducing the idOS - The Self-Sovereign Identity Layer of Web3

on YouTube ↗14m

" summary

A live idOS demo shows users logging with MetaMask, spinning up a validator node, querying a local SQL store and adding encrypted verifiable credentials that only the user can decrypt; nodes sync missed changes when they rejoin. Claims: end-to-end encrypted storage, not wallet-centric multi-wallet access, and cross-chain EVM and non-EVM availability. Roadmap: network goes live end of September with five partners (three announced) and an MVP in November. Compares idOS to ERC20 as an identity standard.
