Sam, Many people outside the identity space, don't understand the problems we've worked to solve for decades... so you have to put the problem in more than just a technical context. I like to use Kim Cameron's quote, "The internet was not built with an identity layer" as an opening/reminder. We tried to solve identity in a bunch of ways - and we succeeded, but... solutions create new problems. Then I build on my foresight research/long term view - that all solutions create new problems. (Unintended consequences - sometimes good/sometimes bad). Our past solutions created the situation we are in today. (And for any aware individuals, you'll realize the solutions we build today will introduce *new* problems years/decades out.) This is a feature of human development. New technology enables new solutions to the same/longstanding problems. Blockchain is *just one* of a suite of technologies based on standards to solve these long standing identity, privacy and security problems in a previously new way. Then you can go into DIDs, DID Docs, VCs and other technical meat. Drummond and Kaliya both have great presos with that. You can also pull from the DID spec. John Jordan's preso is great to introduce VC in the context of a real live project. A few other things I'd suggest you think about - Who is your target audience? What is their background and what are they trying to achieve? What do you *think* they can achieve using this new tech? - Since you have 5 minutes, it's better to tease them a bit, with the concepts, and draw them into the community to learn more. Inspire and provoke them, and show them the path (that you also took) to coming and playing with us. - You're VR/AR native, you bridge the gap between these two communities... what excites you about this tech, community? Maybe you can lead or close with that passion. - And finally, what do you want to achieve in this 5 minutes....
