Profiles

In the Transmute Platform, a profile refers to the publicly available information of a user of the system - at this point, this only consists of their DID Document which contains their public key.

Profile Anatomy

DID Document This document follows the Decentralized Identity Specification and is used to manage the user's secp256k1 public key as well as any claims, services, or additional keys associated with the user's account. The secp256k1 public key is used to communicate with / on any protocols, networks, hardware, and software leveraging the SECP256K1 for their cryptography (Bitcoin, Ethereum,...)

Directory

In the user dashboard, we support a centrally-managed directory where every users' public keys are publicly accessible.

In a directory, users will be able to see all other users of the system via a centrally managed, public directory. Users can use the public keys listed in the directory for messaging purposes.
