Digibyte has certainly had their ups and downs over the years, and they may not be as exciting as a shiny new ICO, but they do have a very interesting feature coming out this month. After a very long wait, they are releasing their Digi-ID protocol. This security layer will allow users to abandon the need for a username and password combinations, and even eliminate the need for 2FA.
What this essentially means is that users will be able to secure their information on chain using Digibyte’s system, and then use it to sign up to websites. It would work similarly to what Facebook login allows, but without the need to allow conglomerates free access to your personal data.
As people become more and more aware of how entities such as Facebook are using their private information it become very attractive to use a protocol such as this, and Digibyte is prepared to roll it out this month. Be on the look out, this quiet little crypto could get a lot louder very soon. Good news for those holding since 2014.
