From centralized ID to decentralized ID, history repeats itself | Nikkei Crosstech

Following on from last week, the second installment of the series "A thorough investigation: Will blockchain bring happiness to humanity?", a history of decentralized IDs, was published in Nikkei Crosstech.From centralized to decentralized identity, history repeats itself" Last time, we looked at the comparison between W3C DID and XRI, but this time we will finally talk about OpenID. There are few documents that explain the ideas behind OpenID, so if you are going to argue that OpenID is centralized, I think it would be a good idea to read this and think about it a bit before you speak.

The table of contents looks like this:

  • (Introduction)
  • The idea of ​​OpenID embodies "self-sovereignty" and "autonomy and independence"
  • Account URI: I can type email addresses but I can't type URLs
    • Overview of the 'acct' URI
    • Resolution of the 'acct' URI
  • OpenID Connect and the 'acct' URI
  • SIOP and algorithmically generated metadata documents
  • Does DID contribute to the dispersion of power? History repeats itself

However, this "and" is a typo. Since the system is called "Another Distributed Identity System," the correct wording would be something like the following. We are currently requesting a correction.
