Abstract
Upgrading of a verifiable credential by a user interfacing with an upgrade control of a visualization of the verifiable credential. The upgradable verifiable credential includes an authorization claim specifying an authorization scope, and an enhancement claim specifying a condition for enhancing the specified authorization scope. A visualization of the upgradable verifiable credential is then display with the upgrade control to a user of a holder computing system that is the holder of the verifiable credential. Accordingly, if the user interacts with the upgrade control, the condition for upgrading the verifiable credential may be accomplished. The issuer of the authorization claim may then be notified of this. The issuer may then provide an ungraded verifiable credential that includes an authorization claim that includes more or a different authorization scope than the prior verifiable credential.
