Additional Info

While many developers and businesses in the SSI ecosystem use Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) as the core building block of their architecture, it is actually surprisingly difficult to work with them. The underlying W3C specifications (DID Core and DID Resolution) are still evolving, with many open issues. Also the number of DID methods is constantly growing, and that their individual strengths and weaknesses are not clear and, at the same time, it is becoming more important to not be locked-in to any single DID method. As a result, developers of SSI use cases need to spend a significant amount of time on understanding the DID layer, when they would rather use their resources on the implementation of concrete use cases on a higher layer.
