DIDs are URIs
Currently, the article reads: "DIDs are URLs that associate a DID subject with a DID document ..."
I don't believe this is correct per the DID v1.0 proposed recommendation. As noted there: "DIDs are URIs that associate a DID subject with a DID document ..."; addressing the document may require a URL (but not necessarily given the advent of information-centric networking), but the DID itself is not location oriented, i.e. it's not a URL.
Not regarding myself amongst the world's DID experts, I thought I'd raise this on the Talk page for confirmation before editing the article. --Psheld (talk) 12:32, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
- You are right. I just changed it. Thanks. --FlippyFlink (talk) 13:40, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
"They are an important component of decentralized web applications." This is an aspirational, forward-looking statement and should probably be removed. I follow this space fairly closely and I'm not aware of a single dapp that uses DIDs today. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:59C8:30B2:F10:249E:2E57:EDED:9987 (talk) 20:29, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
- Here is an app where users can create their own Self-Sovereign account. It uses the DID standard in their currect live production environment (see Worldmobile or Twitter) and utilizes the Cardano blockchain. --FlippyFlink (talk) 22:42, 30 January 2023 (UTC)
