📄️ Standards and specifications for the W3C Verifiable Credential Data Model
The W3C Verifiable Credentials Data Model v1.1 specification was published as a recommendation in March of 2022, while the Verifiable Credentials Data Model v2.0 specification was first published as a Candidate Recommendation Draft in 2024.
