ChainCatcher news, according to CoinDesk, Privado ID (formerly Polygon ID) announced a strategic merger with Disco to achieve "multi-chain verifiable data and reputation management."Its team stated that this merger will promote the unification across Web2 and Web3 ecosystems, the development and adoption of digital identity infrastructure, and will support Privado ID's availability on blockchains such as Optimism, Arbitrum, and Base.

ChainCatcher news, according to The Block, Polygon ID has spun off from Polygon Labs to operate independently and has been renamed Privado ID. Privado ID aims to expand beyond the Polygon network.Privado ID is designed by the team behind the Iden3 protocol and PolygonID, enabling individuals to control their own data, using cryptography and zero-knowledge proofs to verify their age, qualifications, and other details without sharing personal information. The project states that it also supports W3C identity standards and can be used with any EVM-compatible blockchain, with plans to support non-EVM blockchains in the future.The Privado ID team includes Polygon co-founders David Schwartz and Antoni Martin serving as CEO and COO, respectively, Jordi Baylina (a key figure in the development of Polygon zkEVM) serving as a technical advisor, and Polygon Labs co-founder Sandeep Nailwal serving as a growth advisor.

ChainCatcher news, Polygon Labs announced the launch of Polygon ID version 6, which introduces dynamic credential implementation for the first time. This is a W3C specification that allows users to automatically refresh expired credentials from their wallets.It is reported that other features of Polygon ID version 6 include unique private proof (beta), on-chain revocation service, on-chain issuer improvements, support for custom methods and DIDs, credential display methods, Circuits V3 - Beta, etc.

ChainCatcher news, Polygon tweeted that three updates have been made to the Polygon ID identity infrastructure tool, allowing developers to more easily integrate DID into DApps.First, with integration into existing tools and projects, developers will have the ability to share selected fields in credentials using the SelectiveDisclosure feature, implementing new use cases. The new JS SDK enables developers to create identity clients across multiple devices (Web wallets, browser extensions, etc.), and this SDK includes credential issuance capabilities, allowing for serverless issuance from local devices.Second, to improve user experience, the new issuer node user interface makes it easier to set up, manage, and use issuer nodes. For end users, push notifications are now supported in the mobile SDK and reference implementation application (Polygon ID wallet).Third, new tools for developers are provided, including JWZ Validator, Polygon ID smart contracts deployed on the PoS mainnet, and Android and React versions of the mobile SDK along with DID registered with W3C.

ChainCatcher news, [The Sandbox](https://www.rootdata.com/zh/Projects/detail/The Sandbox?k=OQ==) announced on social media that The Sandbox is collaborating with Polygon Labs to implement Polygon ID by the end of the year, aimed at enhancing the KYC program to ensure user safety and privacy.

ChainCatcher news, Polygon announced that it has added 4 new tools to its decentralized identity infrastructure Polygon ID for SSI infrastructure (verifier SDK, issuer node, wallet SDK, and wallet application), which helps developers integrate decentralized identity into their applications.Polygon ID leverages the Iden3 protocol and Circom ZK toolkit, allowing anyone to become an issuer, verifier, or holder of Web3 identity. Off-chain data is now available for trustless on-chain verification through verified credential formats. Launch partners include The Sandbox, Collab.Land, Fractal, and others.Previously reported, last March, Polygon launched Polygon ID using Iden3. (source link)
