A good honest bake. Not flashy, but you'll finish the whole bagel.
Summary
The European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) has released the first set of standards for the European Digital Identity Wallet, a unified mobile application that will allow EU citizens and residents to prove their identity and share specific attributes (such as age, diplomas, or authorizations) across government services, healthcare, banking, travel, and education. The wallet aims to consolidate multiple digital identity functions into a single secure app for approximately 450 million EU citizens.
