The global decentralized identity market size is projected to reach USD 102.00 billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 90.3% from 2023 to 2030, according to a new study conducted by Grand View Research, Inc. The rising need for interoperability between different identity systems is accentuating the acceptance of decentralized identity. In today's interconnected world, individuals often interact with multiple platforms and services that have their separate identity systems.

Decentralized identity solutions provide a standardized framework for identity verification that can be seamlessly integrated across various platforms, enabling interoperability and enhancing user convenience. Furthermore, the impulse for self-sovereign identity is an important driver for market growth. Decentralized identity solutions empower individuals with self-sovereign identities, giving them the freedom to manage and share their identity information as they see fit.

Decentralized identification is an emerging concept that restores consumers' control over their identities by enabling them to acquire verifiable information from certified issuers through an identity wallet, such as the Government. Users can effectively control their online identity and privacy by restricting the data that is conveyed from the wallet to a third person. Furthermore, decentralized IDs would assist individuals who have been the targets of a security breach due to the negligence of a third person.

The COVID-19 pandemic has had an affirmative impact on the market, driving its growth and adoption. With the pandemic necessitating remote work, online services, and digital interactions, the demand for secure and reliable digital identity solutions has surged. Decentralized identity systems, based on blockchain technology, offer a robust and privacy-enhancing alternative to traditional centralized identity management systems.
