Digital Credentials Protocols (DCP) Working Group - Specifications

The goal of the Digital Credentials Protocols (DCP) working group is to develop OpenID specifications for the Issuer-Holder-Verifier-Model use-cases to enable issuance and presentations of the Digital Credentials of any format (W3C VCs, IETF SD-JWT VCs, ISO/IEC 18013-5, etc.) and pseudonymous authentication from the End-User to the Verifier.
