This is awesome, Filip! I really like the fact that it highlights a number of things: Oblivious witness services: 1. Can be simple and quick to build. 2. Can be cost effective to operate. 3. Can be lightning fast (with c14n templates). 4. Can leverage industry standard HSMs. 5. Can be generalized to any market vertical. Would you have any aversion to us writing down the API for the service in a spec? It feels like it should be a separate, really lightweight spec that both the CEL spec, and did:cel depend on. I'd love to see did:webvh depend on it as well, thoughts on that from the did:webvh folks? -- manu -- Manu Sporny - https://www.linkedin.com/in/manusporny/ Founder/CEO - Digital Bazaar, Inc. https://www.digitalbazaar.com/
