Byrne wrote:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>\u00a0&#8220;Blockchain technology that powers cryptocurrencies offers a new way to let us all be &#8216;verified' everywhere we go on the internet, feeling safer about our interactions with others and opening the door to the experiences that require trust.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Adding to his statement, Byrne used American Social Security numbers as an example of fragile identity protection existent today:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Every time you want to prove who you are with your SSN, you need to give away a copy of it. That copy has exactly the same power as the original, so when there's a data breach with copies of your data it puts your identity at risk. A decentralized identity will let you prove that you own an identity, or that you have a relationship with the Social Security Administration, without making a copy of that identity.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>The exchange will take into consideration the aspects of anonymity, privacy and permanence while developing its own decentralized identity solutions, Byrnes <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.coinbase.com\/identity-at-coinbase-welcoming-the-distributed-systems-team-d929dd64de2e\">said<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Through its recent acquisition, Coinbase appears to be positioning itself at the forefront of bridging user identity with the developing digital economy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>San Francisco-based exchange Coinbase is expanding its blockchain ecosystem to prepare for the onset of a regulated digital economy.
