As identity fraud and theft continue to impact economies around the world, blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT) are some of the hottest topics on how to solve digital identity.

​

With companies, like SecureKey, and government initiatives, like the Digital ID and Authentication Council of Canada (DIACC), Canada is home to some of the biggest decentralized identity initiatives in North America, showing the world how blockchain can solve fundamental identity issues.
