FIDES Ecosystem Explorer
The FIDES Ecosystem Explorer shows how digital trust works in practice:
issuers issue credentials, which are used by relying parties.
Personal and business wallets connect both, enabling secure storage and reuse.
Real-world use cases show how these components come together in practice.

From components to ecosystem
Many initiatives focus on individual components:
— a wallet, a credential format, or a standard
– issuers issuing real credentials
– wallets enabling reuse
– relying parties accepting and verifying them
The FIDES Ecosystem Explorer brings these elements together in one place, showing what already works in practice and how different solutions connect.
Issuers
Organizations that create and issue verifiable credentials based on trusted data.
Credential types
The actual credentials being issued, such as identity data, diplomas, mandates or certifications.
Relying parties
Applications and services that verify credentials and use them to make decisions.
Wallets
Personal and organizational wallets act as the bridge between issuers and relying parties.
Without wallets, credentials remain isolated. Without relying parties, they have no value.
Real-world use cases showing how organisations, issuers, credentials, wallets and relying parties work together.
By making the ecosystem visible, FIDES helps organizations move from exploration to implementation — and from isolated pilots to real-world adoption.
