Here goes my attempt at being a threadoooor for @cheqd_io (ticker: $cheq). A 🧵

So what is #cheqd and why should it excite you?
It's become a commonly known truth that in the age of Web2 - WE are the product. Our data is held by companies the companies we interact with online, ostensibly for KYC purposes.

It's expensive to hold and keep secure and makes for crappy UX for users.
This data is often misused, sold or simply lost by the companies holding it, creating huge issues for users

There's this little old token called $Cheq

@cheqd_io

It's very well hidden down the bottom of #CMC, and also not captured the full attention of the #Cosmos #CosmosEcosystem yet. @cosmos @CosmosClub_ @cosmoshub @cosmosibc.

Let's learn a little about its position in #identity👇 Image
Let's begin with the Co-creators of @cheqd_io $Cheq, @evernym (now @Avast)

"We’re the creators of #Hyperledger #Indy and the #Sovrin Network, a co-creator of the #cheqd Network, and a primary contributor to Hyperledger #Aries and #Ursa"

We're thrilled to share that we're live on the #UniversalResolver! 😃 🥳

The Universal Resolver is a tool run by Danube Tech that enables interoperability for #DIDs by providing search and resolution (access to the results) of DIDs across networks.

It's directly related to the work that has been done by the @WebOfTrustInfo and @idworkshop communities around a Decentralized Public Key Infrastructure (#DPKI) and Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs).

👇
@WebOfTrustInfo @idworkshop Which support different “methods” for registering identifiers on decentralised systems such as the @Bitcoin blockchain, @Hyperledger, @ethereum, @IPFS, and others.

#web5 is a genius marketing move to capture #SEO for what is mostly self sovereign identity #SSI but the key part is, it's the basis for #decentralised #twitter which we saw the first hints of at internet identity workshop #IIW

Some more thoughts👇

1/ First up, this is exactly the publicity that #SSI has been missing for global adoption!

There has been a great and growing community beavering away on this for years but the dam is finally breaking on awareness and adoption.
2/ @blocks' #web5 project is being built by longstanding leaders in this community like @csuwildcat.

They're also members of both Chain Agnostic Standards Alliance and @DecentralizedID (as is @cheqd_io). This means it's going to be built in the right way
