I'm not seeing much in there that hasn't been contemplated by the VC data model with Linked Data Signatures (which support chained signatures -- which you're demonstrating one use of here). That said, having the use case diagrammed is quite useful. My suggestion is to get away from the "Wallet" language when talking about the general ecosystem in the same way that we got away from blockchain/DLT when talking about the Verifiable Data Registry. Where entities store their Verifiable Credentials isn't always going to be a wallet. I suggest the more general term should be: Verifiable Credential Repository OR just Credential Repository I'm sure folks may want to bike shed that term. I suggest that "Wallet" or "Holder" is already confusing people (the most recent perma-thread is a great example) and we should get our terminology straight before launching into the next standardization cycle. -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc.
