IntroductionWhat do you think of when you hear the word “identity”? Do you think of usernames and passwords? Do you think of your name or your nickname? How about how you express yourself?

No matter how you answer this question, an identity requires at least one “identifier”, if not more. You can think of a...

Campaigns, An Experiment: Credential Claim Links

Building Connected Audiences with Disco
Web2 businesses thrive on massive data engines, continuously collecting and analyzing data to thoroughly understand their customers and optimize their business operations. While some of these practices have violated user data privacy rights and explicit laws, the concept of utilizing data to understand customers is not going anywhere.

At Disco, we believe in GMs as currency and culture–the fabric that holds us together. Why not trace those moments of interaction and human connection, but in a format you can control?
At Disco, we consider verifiable credentials (VCs) to be the building blocks of your identity. Credentials can represent sensitive and consequential information–stuff you’d never want to put on a chain. But, cumulatively, they can also simply be frames to capture our behaviors and interactions, like saying “gm” to a new friend, a long time acquaintance, or someone you admire. By sending someone a GM, you’re shaping your identity, encompassing the myriad of interactions we engage in with others, whether online or offline.
At Disco, sending GMs is a familiar interaction, enhanced by the power of VCs and the ability for you to control the visibility and access to the frames of those interactions.
So, what are you waiting for? Send someone a GM. Start a conversation. Keep building your identity and control the narrative however you choose.
Visit app.disco.xyz to create a data backpack and make it yours.
Add a display name, link an account, and set a bio (if your life story was a tweet, what would you say?).
With a complete profile, you’re ready to send credentials to anyone you want. All you need is someone’s DID or eth address (if they don’t yet have a Disco data backpack).

Click on the "Send Credential" button
Select "GM Credential"
Enter "Recipient DID" (or eth address)
Select profile
Hit “Issue”
