Decentralized identity (DID) embodies "Privacy by Design" by enabling minimal data collection, user-controlled sharing, and encryption. Verifiable credentials (VCs) contain only necessary attributes (e.g., "over 18" vs. birth date), reducing exposure. Users store VCs in self-custodial wallets, deciding when and with whom to share data. Blockchain’s immutability ensures auditability without central control, while zero-knowledge proofs allow validation without revealing raw data, aligning with privacy-first principles from inception.
