d.id is a decentralized identity (DID) protocol designed to give users self-sovereign digital identities. Through blockchain technology, it allows users to register unique.bit domains as identity identifiers, which are fully owned and managed by the users. Users can use this identity to log into various applications, participate in DAO governance, and display credentials. d.id supports cross-chain and provides SDKs and APIs for developer integration. Its core mechanism binds identity to public keys.

About d.id
d.id is a decentralized identity (DID) system, formerly known as .bit, designed to replace complex crypto wallet addresses with readable names like alice.bit. Its core products include: .bit domains (personal identity), SoulFrag (DID-based reputation management), Voty (DID-based community governance), and d.id Profile (a personal achievement showcase page).
The market pain point is that traditional Web3 addresses are long and hard to remember, user identities are scattered across platforms, and there is no unified reputation or governance mechanism. d.id binds identity, reputation, and governance to a single decentralized identifier, allowing users to carry their data across applications, while enabling communities to issue branded DIDs with one click to strengthen member belonging.
Its core competitiveness lies in the "DID as a Service" model: providing modular tools that let any community or app quickly integrate DID functionality, following the principles of "gasless, seedless, and decentralized" to lower barriers for newcomers.
In the past six months (February to August 2026), d.id continued expanding ecosystem integrations with more wallets and dApps, and improved product usability. Additionally, the team emphasized protecting individual uniqueness in the AI era, exploring how DIDs can serve as identity credentials for AI agents. No major negative events were found, though earlier domain squatting disputes led to adjustments in registration rules.
In the past six months (2026-03-13 to 2026-09-13), d.id formed a strategic partnership with InitVerse to strengthen cross-chain identity authentication and Web3 accessibility. According to the official announcement, the collaboration will focus on four directions: optimizing decentralized identity infrastructure, lowering entry barriers for mainstream users into Web3, enhancing security and proof-of-humanity mechanisms, and supporting scalable cross-chain dApp ecosystems. This reflects d.id’s deepening expansion in the cross-chain DID space.
