True breakthroughs come from portable trust

The current problem is obvious—your identity data is fragmented across countless platforms. The reputation you build in App A has to be rebuilt when switching to the B ecosystem. This kind of fragmented experience has long needed change.

AI-DID-based identity solutions are changing this landscape. By putting your identity and reputation data on the blockchain, your credibility is no longer locked to a single application, and it won't reset when switching ecosystems. Instead, it accompanies you across different platforms.

Imagine: your trading history accumulated on an exchange, your risk score in a lending protocol, your contributions in a community—all can serve as verifiable credentials, circulating throughout the entire Web3 ecosystem. This is what an ideal identity system should look like.

Portable trust is reshaping the infrastructure of Web3.

Hi, I think this idea is really clear-headed. Fragmentation of identity data is truly annoying. Wait, if it's on the blockchain, does that really make reputation safe? It still feels like we should be cautious. Portable trust sounds great, but what if you get phished? Finally, someone is talking about this. We've long needed to break down ecosystem barriers. Risk scoring across chains... Can this really prevent witch attacks?

I think this idea is good, but how many people will actually use it once implemented?

Hey, finally someone is talking about this. I've been so tired of having to level up and fight monsters every time I switch ecosystems.

It's another seemingly beautiful plan, but how many gwei would the actual on-chain cost be? Just writing the identity data costs a lot, and cross-platform circulation? I calculated that the money-saving strategy has turned into a losing game... But on the other hand, if reputation could truly be carried across chains, it would save a lot of trouble. No need to re-establish familiarity every time you switch ecosystems, I'm just worried it will turn into another gas war.

It should have been like this a long time ago. Every time I switch platforms, I have to start from zero. It's so troublesome. If cross-chain reputation circulation can really be achieved, then Web3 won't have been in vain. But on the other hand, is it safe to put this data on the chain...

nah wait, need to dig into the actual implementation here... who's validating these "portable credentials" anyway? that's where the exploit vectors usually hide tbh

Haha, finally someone has pointed out this pain point clearly. Switching to a new platform means having to re-establish your presence, which is truly frustrating.
