Very happy to have this information. I was already suspicious of blockSTREAM for another reason (follows). All a gain of salt but lets see all facts and start to find a patter in this. IOW: The evidence mounts.

I did a little research on Blockchain identities. I found some there were some shady corporation interests on the topic. This lead me to a blockstream video below.

By the way: Please don't confuse blockSTREAM with blockSTACK

Basically the block-stack chief architect is Christopher Allen. He runs rebooting the Web of Trust. There is some good info there. However, the whole thing makes me concerned because it is mixed up with funding from the dept of Homeland Security and they have some meetings at and apparent support from the United Nations .. Public blockchain and the privacy rights issues surrounding identity can be complex. There would be plenty of opportunities to cut corners and leave loop holes that can be exploited by those in power. This can get confusing even for those following it.

So, long story short .. if the past is an indicator of the present this Christopher's tech will be up for main stream adoption. He does not seem to be voluntarism-minded so I'm concerned it will be mutated into something less than what we need.

So if you want to check out Christopher, this is how I found him. It might be good to keep an eye on this.. Read between the lines. You might need to investigate the UN.. Still an interesting presentation. Watch how he addresses concerns over SSL being too centralized.
