Some key insights we gained:

- The w3c DID/VC stack is dominating the space which sounds great for interop but there are major interoperability problems due to 200+ different DID methods for key discovery.

- We indexed them all and show who uses what. 1181 government entities in 105 countries endorse decentralized identity projects. Often by funding.

- The US, Canada and Germany have the most active startups and projects in numbers.

- Switzerland and South Korea have some of the highest ratio of active projects per capita, indicating there is a big push towards decentralized ID in these regions.

- 63% of Identity Projects which call themselves decentralized use Blockchain

- The most used Ledger is Ethereum, followed by Sovrin, EBSI Network, Polygon, 140 ledgers are being used in total
