I think at large people are missing the significance of a #web3 #wallet beyond just #hodling your favourite #Crypto #Cryptocurency token.
Maybe the same way they effortlessly think about using the #chrome browser.
They are both portals for the #WWW and #Web3 respectively

There are new functionalities being added to #web3 wallets to exist as wallets to hold your #credentials for zero knowledge #authentication.
This wallet market is going to be worth a whopper of a predicted $7 trillion market by 2027 alone.

Take 15 mins. Watch this video. It's more important to you than you know.
This is what China is doing, but Western governments are on exactly the same path #technologically; they just have a different set of #rationalisations.
The #DatabaseState isn't coming. It's already here.

It doesn't matter if your Government's #justification is #innovation ("AI is cool!"), #PublicSafety ("Think of the kids!"), or #efficiency ("People are expensive, let's use algorithms instead") - installing the #tools of #totalitarianism only ends up in one place.
It was true...

...of @ukhomeoffice's centralised #biometric National Identity Register - the heart of the #IDcards scheme in the 2000s - and is as true of @DCMS's "Identity & Attributes Trust Framework" 👇 of which the first 'adopters' include the #HomeOffice (again)...

So geht #SSI:
Selbstbestimmte Identitäten von IDunion geben Ihnen volle Kontrolle über Ihre digitalen #Nachweise und IDs. Dafür muss Vertrauen in #digitaleIDs neu gedacht werden: als Vertrauensdreieck. Ein Aussteller stellt Nachweise aus (z.B.: Führerschein, ID, Zertifikate)…

…und das Identitätssubjekt legt diese dem #Verifizierer vor, um Güter & Dienstleistungen zu erhalten. Der Verifizierer validiert die #Credentials hinsichtlich Authentizität und Vertrauen gegenüber dem Aussteller. Sind diese gültig, gewährt er Zugang zu seinen Diensten.
Z. B. stellt das Kraftfahrt-Bundesamt (Aussteller) Ihnen einen FĂĽhrerschein aus, den Sie in Ihrer Brieftasche aufbewahren. Bei einer Verkehrskontrolle durch die Polizei (Verifizierer) zeigen Sie Ihren FĂĽhrerschein dem Polizeibeamten, der eine Sichtkontrolle durchfĂĽhrt und ....
Hmm. Maybe @DCMS could explain the "regulatory barriers" to "secure digital identities" 👇 and - if indeed they exist - why they weren't addressed for, say, @GOVUKverify? They've had a decade to do this, after all...

...and I think @DCMS will find that people have been doing online #shopping and #banking quite happily for many years before #COVID19, without the need for #GovernmentID!
In what way has this "become essential" now?

#DigitalSignatures for contracts are indeed a use case. But again, I've been using them (e.g. with my accountant) for years. And getting the Government involved in what it acknowledges is already a stressful process seems... counterintuitive. Some might even say risky!
1/7 Young adults are getting rocked by this recession. If we learned anything from the #GFC, we know the recovery will be slow & costly for them. But doesn’t have to be. We can act now to prevent another “lost” generation. My take: newamerica.org/education-poli… @NewAmericaEd
2/7 Recessions hit young people hard. Recoveries reach them late. Already, youth #unemployment has topped 14%. Many students are rethinking college plans, questioning the wisdom of taking on debt in this economy. Tens of thousands of US teens are MIA from virtual HS classes.
3/7 If young people disconnect at high rates from school and the #workforce, the costs will be enormous—both to them and to our economy. The #CARES Act may provide relief to a subset, but many of our most vulnerable young adults will not benefit.
