Decentralized identity surged in 2025, with Ethereum leading the charge. Beyond crypto, enterprise platforms like Hedera’s IDTrust launched self-sovereign solutions for governments and institutions. Proof-of-personhood projects, such as Sam Altman’s World ID, let users verify human uniqueness via encrypted iris scans, without sharing personal data. Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong noted this shift as a core pillar for the next phase of the internet, alongside decentralized social media and prediction markets.
