Overview | Self Soverign Identity for Gamers

Gaming Industry needs unification around identity, Gameplay Steetcreds and proof of Achievements which they can OWN, CONTROL & can be PROVED to any 3rd Party.

Gaming industry has evolved from niche communities to a global phenomenon with millions of participants worldwide.

Despite this growth, a critical gap remains: the lack of a unified, verifiable system for player identities, gameplay street creds, and proof of achievements. This blog explores the transformative potential of Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) in gaming, highlighting why gamers need to own, control, and prove their accomplishments to any third party.

The Current Landscape

Currently, gamers often juggle multiple accounts across different platforms, each with its own login credentials, profiles, and achievement records. This fragmentation not only complicates user experience but also makes it difficult for gamers to maintain and showcase their gaming reputation consistently. Achievements and in-game assets are often tied to specific platforms, limiting their portability and verifiability.

SSI offers a solution by enabling gamers to have a single, unified digital identity that they fully control. This identity can be used across different gaming platforms, preserving the integrity and continuity of their digital persona. Here’s how SSI can revolutionize the gaming experience:

Ownership and Control

• True Ownership: Gamers can fully own their digital identities, assets, and achievements. This ownership is independent of any gaming platform, providing a sense of permanence and control.

• Enhanced Security: SSI leverages blockchain technology to secure identities and transactions, reducing the risk of hacks and identity theft.

Unified Gameplay Street Creds

• Cross-Platform Recognition: Achievements and skills acquired in one game can be recognized and respected across other games and platforms.

• Reputation Management: Gamers can build and manage their reputations more effectively, enhancing their credibility and standing in the gaming community.

Proof of Achievements

• Verifiable Records: Achievements can be recorded on a blockchain, making them easily verifiable by any third party. This can be particularly beneficial for professional gamers, streamers, and content creators.

• Portable Achievements: Gamers can carry their records and credentials across different games and platforms, showcasing their skills and accomplishments wherever they go.
