Yes, all of those variations are of interest, albeit a bit far in the future. The challenge for a number of us in this space is how woon these mechanisms will be approved by IETF and NIST... all the math can be well researched and solid, but until there is an RFC from IETF or acknowledgement from NIST that these mechanisms have approval from an international standards body or a well known national standards body, many medium to large corporations and governments around the world tend to play a "wait and see" game. While we're interested in chain and M-of-N set signatures, especially with the qualities you alluded to, much of the VC industry seems to be focused on single signature schemes. I expect that to change, but might take years. As you know, it's our job to make sure the technology is ready before the world needs it. Do you know where each of the technologies you mentioned are wrt. standardization and cryptographic peer review? > LD-Proofs Note that the "LD Proofs" work has been renamed to "Data Integrity" (umbrella term for the "canonicalize, hash, then sign/anchor/proof" approach). While Linked Data can be used, it is not required and alternate data models and canonicalization schemes (such as pure JSON and JCS) can be used. -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc.
