SSI
Identity is not a username in someone else's database. Trusted entities issue credentials; users hold them in sovereign wallets; verifiers check math — not a central honeypot of personal data.
Trust model
The W3C triangle of trust — implemented with did:emp, Ed25519 proofs, and fail-closed verification on EmpoorioChain.
Signs trusted claims about you
Controls keys & disclosure
Fail-closed check on-chain
Private keys stay in the wallet. Personal data stays off-chain. The blockchain stores only DIDs, public keys, hashes, and revocation state — the minimum needed for global trust without surveillance.
