What is Digital Identity and why it matters
Digital Identity is a one-to-one relationship between you and your digital presence. There are many use cases for Digital ID shaping the Web3 future:
🔸 Social Networks & Influence
Imagine: you have a Twitter account with 10K+ followers, but when you sign up on Discord, you can't bring you Twitter subs there — it's an entirely new identity with zero influence.
In Web3, the influence you have on one platform travels with you wherever you go.
🔸 eCommerce & Privacy
No more marketing emails stalking you after one single online purchase. In Web3, you can decide which of your personal details to share with stores.
🔸 Healthcare Decisions & Records
Today, about 60% of misdiagnoses happen because the doctor didn’t have access to the data they needed. Web3 will also make it more convenient: by having control over their own data, people can reduce the «human error» situations.
🔸 Education
No more having to contact university personnel to find and send a copy of your transcripts whenever another organization asks for them. You can simply connect your wallet and grant that organization access to your university credentials.
