What the current evidence supports
Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20
Track; not yet
- Why
- Browser support has actually shipped (Chrome 141, Safari 26), but it rests on a young Working Draft with unresolved privacy/governance gaps (verifier over-asking, no verifier registry) flagged by EFF and a real protocol-fragmentation tax; the risk of building on a spec that may be obsoleted, plus regulatory turbulence around age verification, argues for tracking, not adopting.
- Next
- Monitor the W3C draft toward Candidate Recommendation and watch OpenID4VP-v1 / ISO 18013-7 interop and the Safari-mdoc vs Chrome-OpenID4VP split; prototype only in an isolated trust-authority spike, do not wire into production identity flows.
