I just thought of making a list of digital identity-related developments since the beginning of this year, but they've come so quickly... I'm just looking at my own X posts and blog posts, so I'm sure I've missed quite a few, but this is already enough. I don't think I can keep going at this pace... Also, if you have any suggestions for things to add, please let me know.
