I’ve been doing a huge amount of reading here at the start of 2018 about the future of biometrics. Last year, I wrote a 3-part series on blockchain & biometrics centered around the concept of self-sovereign identity. I began talking about “owning your own data” back in 2011 (called it “fungible cloud”), but expected the idea to take over 10-15 years to even germinate. Fortunately, I was wrong, because things are happening faster than I anticipated.
