Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2022207164A1] The present disclosure relates to a network node associated with a virtual representation of a user. The network node comprises memory configured to store a decentralized identifier, DID, of the virtual representation, a DID document whereto the DID resolves, and a private key of an asymmetric key pair associated with the DID. The DID document indicates at least one attribute assigned to the virtual representation by the user and a public key of the asymmetric key pair. The network node further comprises a first interface configured to send the private key to a network node associated with the user.
