Evernym & verifiable credentials.

Self-sovereign identity, and the importance of verifiable credentials with Richard Esplin a product manager from the company Evernym.

Richard Esplin, an open-source advocate, talks with Doc Searls and Shawn Powers about the importance of taking control of your identity. Richard Esplin works for Evernym, which is the world's leading platform for verifiable credentials.
