About did:lisk Method
did:lisk is a DID method specifically designed for Lisk sidechain, which outlines syntax, data model, and operations that adheres to W3C Decentralized Identifiers (DIDs) Specification.
A did:lisk DID consist of a method, chainspace, namespace, and unique-id that suitable for specific, tailored, self-sovereign identity use case. An example of a did:lisk identifier, is as follows:
did:lisk:enevti:address:lsk9gxy8ua2n5sj7eqvtp554hvce8m39sy39sjwzuPlease refer to the did:lisk method spec draft for further explanation. As its still in under active development, community contribution will be much appreciated.
