[Make A Difference]( BLOCKCHAIN USE CASE: CREDENTIAL SHARING ♻️ Let’s talk about everyone’s favorite two words: use cases. Now, many people think crypto use cases are a lot like John Cena - they can’t be seen. But today, we’re gonna talk about a cool one we recently came across.. [credential sharing](. To show you how it’s done, we’re taking you all the way to North Dakota. (Home of the bison and cities I can’t pronounce) Last year, North Dakota launched a program that lets high school students keep their credentials (i.e. diplomas, transcripts, etc) in a blockchain-powered digital wallet. Here’s how it works: - Students first need to opt in to use the digital wallets - Once they opt in, a decentralized identifier (DID) is assigned to the student - Then the North Dakota Information Technology (NDIT) department issues credentials on behalf of the student on the blockchain - The on-chain credentials are tied to the students’ DID. (Note: no student data is put on the blockchain. Just the DID) - If a student wants to share their credentials with a potential employer, they just need to send them an invitation link. The link takes the employer to the blockchain wallet so they can download and verify the students’ credentials So what? This makes sharing important info as easy as pushing a button. Literally. Back in my day, getting your transcript from school was an Extreme Sport - you’d have to jump through endless hoops and walk miles from office to office trying to find the Transcript Lady. Now it can all easily be shared and stored via the blockchain. MILK & COOKIES 🍪 [Kraken re-introduces Kraken Pro for traders](.
