Abstract

Distributed Ledgers or Blockchain-based systems have the potential to provide enablers for the development of future services. By combining deep encryption, tamper-proof transparency and secure personal data to a wide variety of services, there are great opportunities for the development of new services.

In developing new service experiences that capitalise on the potential benefits of Blockchain, there are a number of key challenges. These include:

  • Emerging opportunities for services provided by blockchain
  • Blockchain as an Identity Enabler
  • Public perceptions and confusion about blockchain
  • Issues of privacy, mistrust of data storage and possible leakage
  • Design methodologies for services to guide users through new blockchain automated and frictionless experiences

This short practice-based paper presents a case study and reflects on the learnings and experience of designing services utilising blockchain technology for digital identity. The paper identifies issues and problems and provides a comprehensive review of the benefits to establish a framework for designing services around distributed ledger blockchain based services.
