Fill out this survey if you are using DIDcomm
DIDComm is one of the earlier protocols developed in DIF, designed to enable trusted interactions between parties. The main difference between DIDcomm and other protocols is that it allows communication without the need for the interacting parties to maintain persistent knowledge of one another. Just as you can send all kinds of file if you know someone’s email address, DIDs allow both humans and machines to send diverse data types across any transport layer.
For many privacy-preserving applications, DIDComm is the only suitable protocol for decentralized interaction.
Leadpoint System, one of DIF’s newest members, has identified the visibility gap of DIDcomm. “We believe that widespread adoption of DID Comm V2 is a critical driver for future interoperability, enabling seamless partnerships and technical synergy between companies in the global decentralized identity space,” said Rinat Bibikov, Fullstack Software Engineer at Leadpoint System.
To address this gap, Leadpoint and DIF are partnering to gather a database of implementations of DIDcomm, to create a strong foundation for more widespread adoption and better industry alignment.

“DIDcomm is in much wider use that we have documented to date,” said Grace Rachmany, Executive Director of the Decentralized Identity Foundation. “Having Leadpoint spearhead this effort will allow DIF to consider the next steps in getting international standards recognition of DIDcomm.
