··· 25 25 Existing DID methods have trade-offs: 26 26 - **did:key** - No rotation or recovery. 27 27 - **did:web** - Domain dependency, if you lose control of your domain you lose control of your identity. 28 - - **did:plc** - Dependency on a centralized sequencer (Bluesky's PLC server). 28 + - **did:plc** - Dependency on a centralized sequencer (plc.directory) which can censor updates and/or create malicious reorgs. 29 29 - **did:ethr** - Gas costs for all updates. 30 30 31 31 Migration between DIDs is not possible, so your DID:Web identity only lasts as long as your control of your domain does, and your DID:PLC identity only lasts until the centralized DID:PLC starts acting dishonestly.
