Our Story

Bindle was founded in June 2020 on the premise that two emerging technologies - Verifiable Credentials (VCs) and Self-Sovereign Identity (SSI) - could create a scalable and verified identity layer for the Internet while also giving individuals complete control over their data.

Our first application, a COVID-19 HealthPass (as described in this brief video), proved the commercial viability of these technologies and delivered an essential tool to help reopen the economy during the pandemic: private and portable proof of health.

Hundreds of health care institutions issued vaccination and test credentials on Bindle and hundreds of enterprise customers used Bindle to verify these credentials - including The Chicago Symphony, Dartmouth College, Dead & Company, The Kennedy Center, San Diego State University, and The White House Correspondents Dinner.

Within 18 months of launch, Bindle became the largest private deployment of VCs and SSI in the United States.

On November 1 2024, Bindle was acquired by IDEN2, a company deploying VCs and SSI in the European Union, which recently chose these technologies as the basis for a continent-wide solution for digital identity.
