Community is all u need (3): digital identity

The author's central point is that real-world KYC should not be codified onchain for every dapp, since users shouldn't need to hand over details like their address, phone number or country of residence to take part. The text cites @july's observation that most of life is shaped by things people cannot control, such as where and when they were born, and argues that the part people can control, including their efforts, contributions, actions and relationships, should matter more onchain. It adds that participating in a forum like Devcon's does not require such personal information.
