Abstract
Techniques for associating verifiable credentials with a decentralized identifier are described herein. A computing device can determine a link between a decentralized identifier (DID) and a domain name, and assign a verifiable credential to the DID to invoke an action associated with the domain name. For example, the verifiable credential can be used to control an identifier on a platform different than the domain name. In some examples, a registrar can validate an identity of the registrant based on the decentralized identifier. The computing device can use the verifiable credential identified in the decentralized identifier to provide secure verifications of an identity.
