PANews, June 18 – The Cyberspace Administration of China has issued a notice to solicit public comments on the "Provisions on Promoting the Interoperability and Mutual Recognition of Distributed Digital Identities (Draft for Comment)," aiming to promote the innovative development and interoperable mutual recognition applications of distributed digital identities, support the construction of common foundational service capabilities for the national blockchain network, and advance cross-platform interoperability and mutual recognition of digital identities across various sectors of the national economy and social development.

The provisions state that a distributed digital identity refers to a new type of digital identity based on distributed technologies such as blockchain, which supports users in autonomously managing identity information. It consists of identifiers, keys, verifiable credentials, and verifiable statements, and can be used in scenarios such as digital account management, login authentication, and data authorization, with the aim of solving the problem of cross-regional, cross-industry, and cross-platform identity interoperability and mutual recognition.

It is reported that the deadline for feedback is July 18, 2026.
