Decision

What the current evidence supports

Human editorial judgment · 2026-08-20

Adopt with guardrails

Why
Final, frozen, IP-protected spec with 98% measured interop on the recommended path and broad mandated adoption (EUDI, CA DMV, UK GOV.UK Wallet) — the lowest-risk, most standards-aligned choice for presentations. Guardrails: pin to the DC-API path and watch the 1.1 work item.
Next
Adopt OpenID4VP 1.0 as the verifiable-presentation request protocol, prefer the Digital Credentials API + HAIP profile path, use DCQL (not legacy Presentation Exchange), and plan to track the OIDF self-certification suite from Feb 2026 and the 1.1 working draft.
