The meme coin’s developers are yet to share the specifics of the Self Sovereign Identity (SSI) feature and are counting down 72 hours from October 28. The big reveal is expected on Tuesday, October 31. A Self Sovereign Identity is digital identification managed in a decentralized manner. This gives individuals sole ownership over their ability to control their personal data when interacting with a crypto asset or platform.
The introduction of SSI is expected to boost the decentralization of SHIB and make the Shiba Inu ecosystem and its Layer 2 scaling solution, Shibarium, further secure.
