Spaces launches Trust Anchor: applications can verify human-readable identities based on Bitcoin

Bitcoin News posted on the X platform stating that Spaces has launched "Trust Anchor," allowing applications to directly verify human-readable identities based on Bitcoin without relying on centralized servers.

Users can obtain a single Trust ID and scan or paste it into Spaces-compatible applications to verify identity identifiers like alice@bitcoin based on the locally verified Spaces protocol status. The Trust ID is generated from the Bitcoin block header chain and the accumulated status of Spaces; the Veritas application on macOS can generate this ID without the need to run a full Bitcoin node, and users can also connect their own nodes or generate the same Trust ID through the Spaces client.

This solution aims to use Bitcoin as the foundation for a decentralized certificate authority, enabling applications to authenticate identities without trusting company servers.
