Cheqd, a trust and payment infrastructure provider, has partnered with Dock. This decentralized identity platform empowers businesses to launch ID ecosystems where their partners can create, share, and monetize verifiable digital credentials.

While Cheqd is committed to creating Self-Sovereign identity (SSI), eID, digital credential businesses, and ecosystems, its alliance with Dock follows a common goal of accelerating the adoption of Decentralised Identity (DID) solutions.

According to the announcement, the partnership will see Dock Certs and its client base migrated to the child network. The $DOCK tokens will be merged into $CHEQ, while the partnering firms will remain independent entities.

These include the former’s imminent MiCA-compliant stablecoin and fee abstraction technology, plus Dock’s forthcoming offering of mobile drivers’ licences (mDLs) and cloud wallet.
