MicroStrategy Unveils Decentralized Identity Protocol

During the annual MicroStrategy World conference, Michael Saylor, co-founder and Executive Chairman of MicroStrategy, presented the open-source MicroStrategy Orange Decentralized Identity protocol. The protocol aims to anchor digital identity into the Bitcoin blockchain, providing a higher level of security. The company also published an unofficial draft of the MicroStrategy Orange specification on Github, indicating its move into the identity and authentication space.

MicroStrategy Orange: A New Level of Security

According to Saylor, the new protocol could introduce an entirely new level of security. He explained that the concept of burning data on the blockchain could lead to the possibility of burning a digital signature, registration, or a hash of a document. This could significantly enhance the security of enterprises, which he believes is currently weaker compared to Bitcoin. The protocol consists of three fundamental pieces, including a service cloud that allows issuing identifiers to users and deploying prepackaged applications that run on the MicroStrategy Orange platform.

Conclusion

The unveiling of the MicroStrategy Orange Decentralized Identity protocol marks a significant step towards enhancing digital security. By anchoring digital identity into the Bitcoin blockchain, the protocol offers a new level of security that could revolutionize the identity and authentication space. As the protocol continues to develop, it will be interesting to see how it is adopted and integrated into various applications and systems.
