The Life of PIEs: The Journey to Personal Identity Ecosystems

This report maps this journey, from today’s fragmented framework of one-to-one relationships, to one-to-many federated identity relationships, to many-to-many relationships of private and perhaps public decentralized ecosystems. On the way, we will explore the key players that are vying for a piece of this opportunity, flagging their strengths and weaknesses, and mapping directionally where they are best suited to meet the requisite criteria of privacy, commerce, reputation, and data management.
