Review of this document: https://daostar.notion.site/How-does-identity-work-within-DAOs-3842497b4eaa45668fb99c308d86c552
Balazs
...on-chain proofing without disclosing any personally identifying information...
...using soulbound nfts...
...may use zk proofs...
Nelson
...should we focus on on or off chain?...
Balaz
...make a decision based off alignment of work interests...
David
...on chain data is the credential...
...the softer broader information is offchain...
...how we are working on this at Lit Protocol:
...we are using credentials to provide encryption and decryption mechanisms...
Stepan
...aggregating reputation system to enable clear contribution credentialing...
...identity is a set of attributes around a core attribute
...that could be a list of on or offchain contributions you have made...
...one metric for valuing identity system is how much time or money it saves for the validators...
...standards should be targeted to this metric...
...the supply of data is primary...
...standards emerge naturally when we are able to create an abundance of data supply...
...as an idea: potentially we could start with not just a standard spec, but we could create a way of standardizing how people submit information rather than working on a spec...
...as a proposal: one common problem is DAOs have unique HR problems. Their problem is not recruiting people, but filtering people. there is no scalable way of verifying experience/reputation...
...reputation is the end goal (possibly vibe scores), but before we get there it would be individual credentials and attestations since they are more discrete data point...
Josh
...a lot of us are producing reputation...
...saying that reputation is the use case is not as informative...
...likes the idea of filtering...
Stepan
...one thing the protocol does is aggregate data from different applications like coordinape etc. ..
...when you use any DAO tooling, there is data produced...
...this data can be used by the DAO...
...the biggest value of the standard is making sure that whatever data is produced by DAOs and DAO tooling is ready to be used and enforced, and compounded by everybody else...
Andros
...Wonderverse is interested in Identity less in one reputation score, but more interested in how we publish work on a chain in a way that people agree upon, and being able to filter by trust based on work done...
...coming from a project management system background and having people able to make resumes based on what happens onchain...
...how do you show that something published on chain is verified by a DAO...
...possibly connected to a DAO URI?...
...what is the structure of the data, and what is inside the piece of data?...
Josh
...is it fair to say that since wonderverse is more focused on PM, they are expecting this standard rather than delivering it?...
Andros
...we would rather work from an agreed upon standard than making their own using something like Ceramic...
Nelson
...we will be both generating the data (platform for daos to rival discord), but will also be interpreting data from multiple sources...
...we’ll probably need to use one or multiple of their solutsions to interpret external data...
...we want to make sure the data we are creating is legible and portable to the ecosystem...
...on both side of using and implementing data structures...
...people will have profiles on Closer linked to individual users...
...all individuals will be pseudonymous...
...”consideration” will become more complex...
...interested in how to reveal different parts of your identity in different contexts...
Gregory (Spruce)
...the work we have done: we have found identity to be a very wide problem...
...many different interpretations of ID...
...focused on credential sides (CELO)...
...focused on different things in different contexts...
...more focus on identification and authentication side...
...dumbest form of identity: how do you use an identifier that you use to authenticate with a server?...
...with additional context: you get more complexity...
...at the core are identifiers...
...working on data vaults, and are less opinionated about reputation or more complex forms of identity...
...very focused on primitives side...
