Palma DID Framework

The Palma DID Framework explains how this cryptographic key becomes a functional, interoperable identity.

• W3C Compliance: Our framework is fully compliant with W3C DID and Verifiable Credential (VC) standards, ensuring universal interoperability.

• DID Registry: A core smart contract (deployed on Polygon zkEVM) that acts as the source of truth, mapping a user's did:palma identifier to their corresponding public key.

• VC Management: We adopt the standard Issuer-Holder-Verifier model:

  • Holder: The Palma Wallet holds and controls all VCs.
  • Issuer: Partners (e.g., KYC providers, universities, social platforms) issue cryptographically signed VCs to the user's DID.
  • Verifier: DApps or services request proof from the user's wallet.
