internet-identity VS chainlink

You can visit identity.ic0.app and select backup. From there you can either choose a recovery phrase or a yubikey back up method. With that you can recover your account in case you lose access on your primary device. It is also recommended that you add multiple authorized login devices in case you lose one of them.

But, if you saved your seed phrase (and if you haven’t then you can access it here https://identity.ic0.app/), then you can restore your wallet with it instead of using the identity.

Then add a link from the https://identity.ic0.app/ page to an area where users can find/search for this type of content.

Anything about your Internet Identity can be controlled through https://identity.ic0.app/

You can visit identity.ic0.app to manage all your device and recovery methods.

What bothers you about Internet Identity? It is open source and the README there provides a pretty good overview: all it is is a way of registering a public key (whose secret counterpart you hold on your phone or other device) with a canister; that canister then produces delegations (unique per-application identities, that cannot be reverse engineered to find out your identity, even if that identity is just a public key, no PII).

The Internet Computer[0] hosts whatever kind of service you can cram in a smart contract form-factor. In exchange for having to deal with things like oracles to retrieve information from the outside world, it costs absolute peanuts[1]. I tend to use it whenever I want to PoC a web app frontend because it's usually lower-friction than a VM. Unfortunately there aren't that many things to show as an example that aren't just NFT silliness, but one big one is OpenChat[2], which also shows off the basically zero-friction single-sign-on[3] that can't be tracked across services.

Will it pan out? I have no earthly idea. But it's cool enough to try.

Have you added your new iphone to the list of authorized devices for your II? You can do that by visiting https://identity.ic0.app/ and clicking on "add device". Are you using chrome browser?

Chainlink (LINK) – The Blockchain Oracle Giant

Chainlink allows smart contract developers to receive a wide variety of off-chain data, with the most commonly used features being receiving off-chain randomness and off-chain pricing data. Integrating your smart contracts with Chainlink provides a unique set of potential security vulnerabilities that attackers can exploit; here are the common vulnerabilities that smart contract developers & auditors need to look out for.

In some way, I'd also put Chainlink in that category since they allow to access open world data on-chain and making dapps more relevant as a result.

Smart contracts have revolutionized various industries by enabling the automation of agreements and transactions in a secure and decentralized manner. However, for smart contracts to reach their full potential, they need access to real-world data and external systems. This is where Chainlink comes into play.

I would suggest the use of an oracle like chainlink. Link: https://chain.link - I don't know exactly what your specific requirements are since I cannot review your code but a thirdparty oracle sounds like it could offer you at least some direction.

🥁 Introducing Co:OPERATE @ EthCC by Celo with Co:HOST Chainlink!

Etherisc has built a platform (Generic Insurance Framework) for decentralized insurance applications. We use blockchain technology to help make the purchase and sale of insurance more efficient, enable lower operational costs, provide greater transparency into the industry and democratize access to reinsurance. We’ve been around since 2016, have many high-profile collaborators (including Chainlink) and are proud of the innovative applications of the parametric insurance products built on our platform, including travel delay, crop and carbon credit protection.

As well as feeding real-world data to smart contracts, oracles can be used to monitor other blockchains and pass information about them between networks. Chainlink has made progress in this direction, with their Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol (CCIP). This enables the creation of multi-chain apps. The protocol is maintained by a decentralized network of nodes. However, this is unlikely to be as secure as the chains between which messages are being sent.

Chainlink is not a blockchain - it's a "heterogeneous network", i.e. an open-source protocol for building oracle networks. Chainlink is 'blockchain-agnostic', aimed at connecting any chain to any API/external system and supporting interoperability between chains. Besides ETH, it has existing or planned integrations with: ONE, ADA, XTZ, MATIC, HBAR, DOT, BSC, ATOM, LUNA, etc.
