Digital Identity - Onramp to the Info Superhighway
summary
Colorado builds and deploys a real digital ID app called my colorado that launches October 2019, adds selective attribute sharing in November and stores licenses by late spring; the system drops fragile front/back ID document comparison in favor of a selfie + QR flow that let a stopped driver share specific fields with police in a demo. Over 500 businesses accept the credential, signup takes ~90 seconds, and the talk cites identity-linked fraud costs of ~$20 billion and a $100 failed Estonian digital‑ID attempt. mdl standard and blockchain are positioned as the verification layer.
