Are we sabotaging decentralized identity adoption by focusing too much on technology? In this clip from latest episode of The SSI Orbit Podcast, identity architect Antti Kettunen reveals why the traditional approach to selling decentralized identity solutions is fundamentally flawed. Discover why: ✨ The issuer-holder-verifier model is a disconnected value chain ✨ Businesses won't sacrifice profits for idealistic goals ✨ Issuance and presentation are separate value chains that need to be bridged ✨ We need to think beyond technology to create sustainable ecosystems Antti challenges us to reconsider our approach, arguing that we must look at decentralized identity through multiple layers - not just technology, but business incentives, governance, and ecosystem design. This clip is a wake-up call for anyone working in the digital identity space. Don't miss the full episode with Mathieu Glaude out this Friday to gain crucial insights that could revolutionize your approach to decentralized identity adoption!

In our well known. Essentialized identity value chain and we we all know the the issuer holder verifier model or relying party which terminology you want to use. That is essentially a disconnected model. The problem there is that we think that we can sell that as a centralized platform. And the reason why we probably think that is that we may be a little bit naive in thinking that we want to provide, for example, privacy or we want to enable. The holder as a central party that we all want good things to that. And in essence, it is like that, You know, we are human beings. We rarely actually want bad things to other humans. But, but, but the point is that we're still doing business. So any decisions what we do is we make from the basis and from the view of the business we are representing. So just for somebody else to say that, yeah, we'll we're willing to give up a lot of money just to make the whole issue holder very fiery ruling party triangle work. That's not happening. That's where that's we would like for that to happen. But realistically speaking, we're not seeing that happen. And if we if you think about that, that triangle, you can split it up into two parts. You have the issuance and you have the presentation. And I like to tell say that the value potential. Of of this whole value exchange, credential exchange model, it starts from the issuance obviously. So that's sort of where you stringing the bow, you string the bow and you hit the tension, that's the potential energy we're creating. That's the value potential we're creating there. And that potential energy, that potential value is their only. And that's realized only when you actually use that. You can hold those credentials in your wallet for a millennia and it still would not realize the value. So there's no real benefits to the issuer there at all to give that out necessarily to to, to give, give that out to the holder until the relying party realizes that and until that ecosystem somehow produces value to the issue as well. So we have two different value chains. Actually we have two different value chains within this credential exchange model where the one is the issuance, the one is the presentation and these are disconnected, they have nothing. To deal with each other unless we create some kind of value chain. Wider or larger? What value chain that makes? The issuer of benefit from some of the relying party actions or vice versa or whatever other means of gaining value from the issuance happens. And so and as we know from UDF for example, there are exceptions to this. So Yidis to the European Identity Regulation that's now in place. It mandates certain issuers to issue at the stations, mainly public sectors. And that's a regulatory mandate. So it's, it's, they don't even need to request incentive, they just have to do that. So this is definitely a, this is something that's excludes those regulatory mandates from happening. But that's, that's the basic idea there is that we are very different in the decentralized identity ecosystem. And I think we may be even a little bit naive in this, that we were thinking that we can just sell it as technology, whereas we need to think it. Not just from a singular technology value chain, but we actually need to think in whole 3, even 4 different layers.

🎙️ I started a podcast! With information bombarding us daily, it’s hard to sift through what’s useful and what’s just noise. I realized that I wanted a platform for real conversations about AgTech—a place to exchange practical insights and ideas that actually bring value. That’s why, alongside Clyde Graham, we launched Digital Ag Global. Our goal is to learn from partners, clients, and listeners by inviting industry experts to share their experiences and perspectives. Even with decades of experience between us, we know there’s always more to learn, especially with so many emerging niches in the industry. So, I’d like to personally invite you to Episode 2 of Digital Ag Global, where we’ll dive into smart farm technologiesand AgTech trends for 2025. Join us, share your thoughts, and be part of the conversation! 📅 Tune in, comment, and enjoy! LinkedInLive: https://shorturl.at/CcZak YouTube: https://shorturl.at/lZgMh

I had great time being on the The Austin Forum on Technology & Society's podcast, AF Upload discussing all things related to the Austin innovation ecosystem & the evolving tech trends around us. Host Jay Boisseau brought on myself and • Thom Singer, CSP 🌟, CEO of the Austin Technology Council. As usual with most conversations, I was the probably the most optimistic person on the pod. 🚀 Check out our full discussion here: https://lnkd.in/eZK2mB9P How is the region positioned for 2024?
