About the runtime
The SideTree protocol, developed by the Decentralized Identity Foundation, is a layer-2 protocol for anchoring and tracking DID Documents across a blockchain, a system also know as decentralized PKI network. Identifiers and PKI metadata in the protocol are expressed via the emerging Decentralized Identifiers standard, and implementations of the protocol can be codified as their own distinct DID Methods.
The central design idea involves batching multiple DID Document operations into a single blockchain transaction. This allows SideTree to inherit the immutability and verifiability guarantees of blockchain without being limited by its transaction rate.
As of today, there exist two standard implementations that anchor DID operations onto the Bitcoin (project ION) or Ethereum Blockchain (project Element).
This task involves creating an implementation of the SideTree protocol using Substrate.
Several alternative designs could be envisaged:
