In this brief introduction to self sovereign identity, we will talk about how we build identity systems to create trust. Trust was something that was local and useful for establishing trust in a single domain. The only issue with existing identity systems is that they are not trust worthy. Still there is no good way to prove that you are a certain age, you have an account with a certain bank, etc. It is very difficult for someone else to vouch for you.

Initially identity was siloed, then came federated identity, and now it is time for user centric identity, this is what self-sovereign identity is.
