OmniOne DID Method (did:omn) is a blockchain-based decentralized identifier system designed to support Self-Sovereign Identity and Verifiable Claims. The method operates on the OmniOne network, which uses a Delegated Proof of Stake consensus mechanism with Byzantine Fault Tolerance (requiring 2/3 agreement).

The method provides a decentralized alternative to traditional centralized credential systems, with a focus on security and privacy. DIDs are managed through smart contracts that handle creation, reading, updating, and deletion operations. A key feature is the method's approach to privacy - no Personally Identifiable Information (PII) is stored on the blockchain, only public keys and signature values.

The system offers two distinct approaches for DID creation:

  • A simplified method requiring basic input data and signatures
  • A comprehensive method allowing full DID document creation

Security is maintained through several mechanisms:

  • Replay attack prevention using mandatory nonce values
  • Non-repudiation through digital signatures
  • Traffic security via TLS protocol
  • Consensus security through DPoS and BFT

Technical Implementation:

  1. DID Generation and Structure:
  • Format: did:omn:<omn-identifier>
  • Identifier composed of alphanumeric characters
  • Two creation methods supported via RESTful API:
    • Simple creation with basic public key data
    • Full document creation with complete DID specification
  1. Resolution Process:
  • Implemented through RESTful API endpoints
  • Read operations query the blockchain directly
  • Returns complete DID document if found
  • Verification performed through smart contracts
  1. Key Management and Security:
  • Supports multiple public keys per DID
  • Uses EcdsaKoblitzSignature2016 for cryptographic operations
  • Mandatory nonce values stored on blockchain
  • Authentication section defines valid verification methods
  1. Technical Stack:
  • Blockchain-based infrastructure
  • Smart contract execution environment
  • RESTful API interface
  • TLS for transport security
  • DPoS consensus mechanism with BFT
  1. Unique Features:
  • Dual-mode DID creation (simple/full)
  • Blockchain-stored nonce validation
  • Complete CRUD operations via smart contracts
  • Permanent, non-reversible deletion option
  • Zero PII storage policy
