Bhutanese Crown Prince is country’s first citizen with Decentralized Identifier

H/T to Ganesh, who found this story:

So, like 1) that's awesome, and 2) they're using Decentralized
Identifiers!?, and 3) I hope no one is missing the irony of an actual
sovereign using Self Sovereign Identity.

Anyone have more information on how this came about?
