Query: Binding of Endpoints to Identifiers by On-Chain Proofs   In many applications, identity management (IdM) is used to associate a
subject public key with an endpoint at which the subject can be contacted
(telephone number, email, etc.). In decentralized applications based on
distributed ledger technologies (DLTes), it is desirable for the IdM to be
decentralized as well. Currently, endpoints are either verified by who needs
it, which is impractical in DLT-based applications, or by a centralized
authority, which contrasts with the spirit of DLTes. In this paper, we show two
DLT-based protocols to prove the association between a subject and an endpoint
in a decentralized manner, contributing in filling the gap of the current IdM
approaches with respect to decentralization. Our protocols are compatible with
a wide variety of endpoints. We analyze the security of our protocols and
evaluate their performance and cost against the common approaches.
