Re: DIDs and NFTs

Just wanted to add nuance by mentioning some privacy-focused blockchains
that claim to support private NFTs:

https://scrt.network/about/secret-nfts
https://www.aleo.org/

Not to mention ZKP roll-ups that can add confidentiality and also restrict
data availability in ways compatible with data regulatory frameworks.

I think it’s more nuanced than just NFTs vs. VCs. A fairer comparison might
be ERC-712 NFT on mainnet Ethereum vs. JWT-VC hosted on Amazon’s servers
behind OIDC authentication using HTTPS-hosted revocation lists.
