Title: need help about blockchain identity
Post by: kusanagi01 on August 25, 2020, 11:27:37 AM
Hey everyone,
Hope this is the right place to ask about that.
I have an interview next week. it is a blockchain-related offer, and they tell me to improve my knowledge in Blockchain for identity field.
So I am here to ask if anyone here has resources( courses, tutorials, projects building from scratch...)
I already read some articles from consensys and IBM. but I need technical and building projects tuto.

Tank you

I went to a presentation by Shyft (https://www.shyft.network) about blockchain for identity at my university a year or 2 ago, it was reasonably technical. If you look around their site I'm sure you'll be able to find some technical info, I'd probably skim through the blog and white paper first, see if there's anything related to what you need. They also have GitHub though I'm not sure how much of their code is public.

Thank you for your support. I read whitepaper and see github projects, but seems too hard to me. I need some resources for beginners and newbie.
Thanks

Should you google this you'll find some basic news articles outlining the different DID projects, most of which are going nowhere fast.

This chap is getting somewhere though

However the simple wrench attack still presents a problem to my mind.

Here's a good start to get your mind round what it is https://youtu.be/Ew-_F-OtDFI

Understand that some articles can be misleading but I believe everything you need concern blockchain and cryptocurrency can be find on En.bitcoin.it (https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Identity_protocol_v1) page and the last time i checked everything that have to do with blockchain identity or identifier are done by the IoT projects.
You can googling "IoT" for comprehensive understand if the link I provided is not enough.

When you say you need resources for beginners, do you mean you're inexperienced with blockchain for identity, blockchain in general, or programming in general? If it's the 2nd or 3rd option, you're gonna have a rough time in your interview. I don't think you can get up to speed in a week unless you're addicted to learning this stuff.

I second ETFbitcoin's links to Lopp's site, there are great technical resources there, though you won't find anything related to identity, just Bitcoin.

There is not many books I know about blockchain for identity. Although I have seen some project such as Depository in the past that talk extensively on blockchain technology. You can check it out. However, I will suggest to you google scholar https://scholar.google.com/scholar?q=blockchain+for+identity+management&hl=en&as_sdt=0&as_vis=1&oi=scholart there are many journals, articles and other types of publication that will be able to help you. I wish you good luck.
