Description

An interesting discussion is being held in the [W3C Web Payments Community Group](https://www.w3.org/community/webpayments/) at the moment regarding [A Decentralized Hashtable for the Web](https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-webpayments/2015Nov/0000.html). I think its take on the problem "Identity on the Web" highly correlates to how Keybase has chosen to solve this problem and as a member of the CG, I would highly appreciate your membership and valuable input in the discussion and process of bootstrapping this standardization effort.

Research direction

Start with the W3C Web Payments Community Group and its linked discussion on “A Decentralized Hashtable for the Web.” Compare the identity problem described there with how Keybase addresses it, then determine whether there is a concrete standardization contribution to make. Done means participating in the discussion with useful input, not changing a named repository file.
