Hypersign Decentralized Identifiers (Hypersign DID) comply W3C DID specification and is built on top of Hypersign Identity Blockchain Network. It implements Hypersign DID scheme (did:hid
).
Note: did:hid
DID scheme is yet to be officially registered on W3C DID registry.
Decentralised Identifiers are cryptographically-verifiable identifiers which are stored on a decentralised ledger, which enables users to own and manage their ID.
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 Documenthid
- 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
- ed25519
- secp256k1
The did:hid
method supports the following operations:
- Transaction Based:
- Register a DID document
- Update a DID document
- Deactivate a DID document
- Query Based:
- Query DID Document(s)
