I find this perspective fascinating because it highlights a truth many of us rarely think about. For years, I’ve logged into platforms, stored personal data online, and trusted that those systems would always be there when I needed them. But the moment I imagine losing access to a single account, I realize how much of my digital identity actually lives on servers I don’t control. That realization alone changes how I view digital ownership.

What stands out to me in this idea is the shift from platform control to individual control. When I look at systems like Atala PRISM issuing credentials directly to personal wallets, I see a model where I hold my own digital proof instead of relying on institutions to store it for me. That removes a huge vulnerability created by centralized databases.

I’m also intrigued by how Midnight approaches verification. With zero-knowledge identity, I can prove something about myself without exposing the underlying data. That means services get the confirmation they need while my personal information stays private on my device.#night $NIGHT @MidnightNetwork
