Clarification on the Definition of "Holder" #225
Comments
Note that a VC may be carried as printed material (e.g., a barcode). In other words, a VC does not need to be digital, nor does holding it require the use of a digital wallet. |
a qr code is digital no matter the medium |
I agree with @peppelinux for the clarification about the entity. Note that the change may be reflected in oid4vci which has the same definition in the terminology section https://github.com/openid/OpenID4VCI/blob/main/openid-4-verifiable-credential-issuance-1_0.md#terminology |
The current definition of "Holder" in the OpenID4VP specifications states:
This definition, while succinct, lacks clarity on the technical aspects of who or what constitutes a "Holder" in practical scenarios, especially when considering the interaction between the user and their digital wallet.
Points for Clarification:
User vs. User+Wallet as Holder
Role of the Wallet
Combined Entity as Holder
Suggested Revision
To address these points, I propose revising the definition of "Holder" to better articulate the relationship and roles of the user and the wallet. The revised definition could read:
All this issue description can be summarized with the question <<Really, who is the Holder?>>
