As mentioned in our previous update, we are currently working on additional language support in order to help bolster the adoption of Sign-In with Ethereum across any application. We're happy to announce the alpha release of our Rust library.

When signing in to popular services today, users will typically use identity providers (IdPs) that are centralized entities with ultimate control over users' identifiers--or "Big Login."

At Spruce, we’re letting users control their identity and data across the web. Here’s the latest from our development efforts.

Earlier this week, we released the first public Sign-In with Ethereum example on login.xyz

As part of our research for Sign-In with Ethereum, we needed to compare signing methods to decide which would be best to leverage for the specification.

At Spruce, we’re building the most secure and convenient developer tools to share authentic data. Here’s the latest from our development efforts!

Sign-In with Ethereum (EIP-4361) seeks create a specification that includes both elements of signing and identity to enable users to control their digital identity with their Ethereum account and ENS profile instead of relying on a traditional intermediary.

Spruce has added Polygon support in its identity infrastructure that enables Polygon developers to have standard and interoperable ways to issue, verify, and store trusted information to allow any Polygon account to control their identity.

The initial goal for the Sign-in With Ethereum efforts is to create a specification and reference implementation for an end-to-end authentication flow for Ethereum accounts to log in to traditional Web2 services, using ENS as a primary user-controlled data aggregator.

Sign-in with Ethereum will allow users to use their Ethereum accounts to access web services instead of accounts owned by large corporations.
