?? The Internet Was Never Built for Trust ?? Trust was never part of the internet's original blueprint, and today, we’re seeing the consequences. In our latest episode of The SSI Orbit Podcast with Mathieu Glaude, Darrell O'Donnell explains why digital trust is decaying and how the Global Acceptance Network (GAN) is building a new trust layer to fix it. GAN is creating a neutral, nonprofit infrastructure focused on ensuring authenticity and trust in digital credentials—similar to how Visa simplified global payments. The aim? To make digital interactions as seamless and secure as swiping your Visa card. You don’t need to understand the tech; you just need to know it works. ?? Watch the full episode now to hear Darrell’s thoughts and learn how GAN is redefining trust on the internet. ???? https://lnkd.in/g2Nji8kx #DigitalTrust #SSI #InternetSecurity #GAN #Blockchain #DecentralizedIdentity #TechPodcast #Innovation
