What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Track; not yet

Why
v1.0 with three interoperable implementations plus a Swiss national e-ID selection and emerging commercial resolver support are real maturity signals and it is a clean upgrade path from did:web, but production adopters are profiling the spec down and witness security is still not turnkey.
Next
Prototype did:webvh log resolution against the BC Gov TypeScript implementation in a trust-authority sandbox; compare against current did:web usage and review swiyu's profile restrictions before any production commitment
