Verifiable Credentials (VCs)

Verifiable Credentials (VCs) are digital identity documents that can easily and securely be shared with and verified (incl. validity, integrity, authenticity, provenance) by anyone in a privacy preserving way. Importantly, they are never (!) stored on a blockchain due to privacy and compliance reasons.

The SSI Kit supports W3C Verifiable Credentials in different formats:

• JSON / JWT

• JSON-LD

Note that we are continuously adding support for new VC types and formats.
