At Spruce, we’re building a product suite to manage all aspects of the data supply chain. Here’s the latest from our development efforts:
The Tezos DID Method specifies how Tezos can be used for DID creation and management, compatible with the issuance, storage, and verification of Verifiable Credentials.
DIDKit is a cross-platform toolkit for working with W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs).

The Tezos DID Method specifies how Tezos can be used for DID creation and management, compatible with the issuance, storage, and verification of Verifiable Credentials.
In order to better work with decentralized identifiers and verifiable credentials, we’re working on DIDKit.
DIDKit is a cross-platform toolkit for working with W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) and Verifiable Credentials (VCs). It allows you to resolve and manage DID documents, and also manage the entire lifecycle of Verifiable Credentials including their issuance, presentation, and verification.
Notably, it reuses the same codebase across command-line tooling, RESTful HTTP servers, and platform-specific SDKs to facilitate code-level interoperability and a low total cost of ownership. …
At Spruce, we’re building a product suite to manage all aspects of the data supply chain. Here’s the latest from our development efforts:
We are currently working on a project called DIDKit: a cross-platform toolkit for using DIDs and VCs with our Rust libraries at the core.
We’re happy to announce that we have joined the DIF as an official associate member.
The DIF has existed as a cornerstone of standards development for decentralized identity, with its work being integral to the creation of foundational components and protocols. As frequent contributors to DIF, we felt that it was important to become an official associate member and solidify our commitment to the continued development of open, interoperable decentralized identity systems. We see our DIF membership as a means to continue to push decentralized identity forward and collaborate with other members to shape the future of trusted interactions worldwide.
If you would like to discuss our work or collaborate on an initiative, please take 30 seconds to leave us a message, and we will respond within 24 hours.

At Spruce, we’re building software to power the future of digital identity. Here’s the latest from our development efforts:
Spruce is a digital identity company that reimagines trusted interactions for enterprises and governments. We help our customers create trusted digital ecosystems that reduce transaction costs for business dealings and government services by incorporating real-world facts throughout their workflows in a standards-based way.
Our products handle statements about an ecosystem’s actors and assets, including certificates, licenses, audit reports, and formal approvals, packaging them digitally so that they are tamper-proof, information minimizing, and traceable within a data supply chain. They can then be shared privately and securely to correctly permissioned parties. …
We’re happy to announce that we have joined the W3C as an official member.
The W3C has continually demonstrated excellence in the development of Web standards, and has been instrumental in the development and implementation of verifiable credentials and decentralized identifiers. As participatory members of the Credentials Community Group, we felt that it’s important to become official members and solidify our commitment to the continued development of open, interoperable standards. …
What would it look like to have a more secure social security number?
In today’s digital world, individuals are approximated by combining and cross-referencing as many as possible of the documents and connections that form their “identity.” We are glimpsed through these collections of numbers, letters, visual representations, verbal and non-verbal affirmations that confirm or betray our own claims about ourselves. Some pieces of information are inherent to an individual such as a photograph, while others are assigned such as a driver’s license number, or name on a birth certificate. …
At Spruce, we’re building out our initial libraries and components to power the future of digital identity. Here’s the latest from our development efforts:
As part of our efforts, we are developing a library to provide functionality around Verifiable Credentials (VC) in Rust. We chose Rust for its speed, predictable performance, and safety. One other consideration for Rust was for embedded and IoT devices in the future as they harness credentials and use them in the performance of discrete tasks.
We are happy to report that our VC library passes all tests required by the W3C Verifiable Claims Working Group test suite to be considered a conforming implementation. Once released, we will propose that our library is included in the W3C CCG implementations list with all public results of our conformance testing, and instructions on how to run them locally. At the moment we are implementing JSON-LD support in Rust to fully express semantic data models past the operations required to pass the test suite. …
