“…This means that CAs need to maintain SLA and QoS levels to avoid what the clients call a 'bad reputation', that would relegate the CA to the back of the PKI queue for generating new certificates. Another system in which the blockchain is used as a log ledger is presented in [70], where a new public PKI for Peru is presented. This PKI defines a hierarchy of four types of certificates that are generated by a local CA with RSArelated technologies that are not compatible (at the time of publication) with international certification standards.…”

Since the emergence of the Bitcoin cryptocurrency, the blockchain technology has become the new Internet tool with which researchers claim to be able to solve any existing online problem. From immutable log ledger applications to authorisation systems applications, the current technological consensus implies that most of Internet problems could be effectively solved by deploying some form of blockchain environment. Regardless this 'consensus', there are decentralised Internet-based applications on which blockchain technology can actually solve several problems and improve the functionality of these applications. The development of these new blockchain-based solutions is grouped into a new paradigm called Blockchain 3.0 and its concepts go far beyond the well-known cryptocurrencies. In this paper, we study the current trends in the application of blockchain on the paradigm of Public Key Infrastructures (PKI). In particular, we focus on how these current trends can guide the exploration of a fully Decentralised Identity System, with blockchain as be part of the core technology.
