动态 | 加密资产Nym公布分散式身份识别系统新代码 可与Facebook登录应用程序竞争:据CoinDesk 消息，专注于隐私的Nym技术公司本周公布了其分散式身份识别系统的新代码。它计划在今年秋天发布测试网。周二在柏林举行的Web3峰会上，Nym首席执行官Harry Halpin表示，这项技术代表了“下一代隐私基础设施”，不仅适用于区块链，而且适用于整个网络。实际上，Halpin认为，Nym网络的一个关键特性就是它是区块链无关的。Halpin说:“我们正在开源我们的实现，它内置了与以太坊区块链的通信。”“我们允许将以太坊区块链中特定令牌的值转换为Nym凭据。”如果成功，这一举措将把Nym的数据屏蔽功能带给世界上几乎任何区块链平台的隐私用户。Halpin认为，Nym可以与Facebook及其单一登录应用程序Facebook Connect竞争，将用户数据隐私重新交到用户手中。[2019/8/22]
