Decentralized Identity (DID) and KYC Solutions on Stellar

​This technical workshop dives into how Decentralized Identity (DID) and KYC solutions can be implemented on the Stellar network to enhance trust, compliance, and accessibility across financial services. Participants will explore how Stellar enables privacy-preserving identity systems and compliant user onboarding, using open protocols and smart contracts with Soroban.

​The event combines both theory and hands-on building, helping developers and innovators understand real-world use cases of decentralized identity within Web3 infrastructure.
