This article describes the implementation self-sovereign identity through protocol-mediated credential exchange on the self-sovereign internet, examines its properties, and argues for it generative nature from those properties. The self-sovereign internet is labeled "Layer Two" in this figure. Verifiable Credentials.

The WA agent is an open source software hosted on GitHub. But to retrieve the certificates for the decryption, the agent first needs to take an extra precaution and supply a self-signed transport certificate that would be used to encrypt the certificates bundle. Where does it get the decryption key? Vamosi: An ah-ha moment.
