Trusted Credentials / Entrustient, where the visibility of an individual’s identity, is aligned to the ownership of their life-long digital footprint on the blockchain.

Entrustient was founded on the belief that there’s a better way to ensure the visibility of an individual’s identity, is aligned to the ownership of their life-long digital footprint. This is done, by utilizing a network of secure, public permissioned, and redundant decentralized blockchain networks, to establish a trusted decentralized digital identity peer-to-peer ecosystem, which brings human trust from the offline physical world to the online digital world.
