Description

Should support be added for a "3rd party Wallet Server" rather than binding the Wallet client and Wallet server to the same organization. This has implications on overall trust model and liability assignment. As an aside of this higher level concept...

  • can wallet clients pass attestations through the protocol to the Issuer so that the issuer has higher assurance of wallet client than just trusting the wallet client by proxy of the wallet server

Research direction

No implementation files, tests, or entry points are named. Start by clarifying the proposed third-party Wallet Server trust model and liability implications, then assess whether wallet-client attestations should pass to the Issuer. Done requires an agreed protocol direction and requirements before implementation can be scoped.
