For reference, here are the requirements for DID method specifications and here is one frequently referenced IETF standard for X.509 Public Key Infrastructure Certificates (RFC 5280).

  • Competitive tooling between X.509 resolution tooling and DID resolution tooling
  • What does it take to make X.509 satisfy the requirements of a VID?

Three broad classes of trust infrastructure:
