0:00 My name is Ryan Hanson. I'm one of the core developers for the KERI Foundation

0:04 development team. Presentation today was about witnesses and watchers and our boot

0:09 service in the KERI infrastructure that we're deploying and making open to the

0:13 world. Witnesses and watchers are a key part of a crucial part of the KERI

0:19 ecosystem the way it's designed to be used and without them there's some value in key

0:26 management at least in terms of being able to have somewhat self-sovereign keys but

0:32 without the witness and watcher infrastructure to prove that those things

0:36 are still valid, that your keys are still yours, the kind of the whole principle

0:42 underlying what KERI is all about falls apart. For me personally when I first got

0:47 introduced to KERI, the witness and watcher idea was the thing that really

0:50 hooked me in because it doesn't really matter what assertion is made if there's

0:56 not something that can prove that that assertion is true, then it ultimately

1:00 doesn't matter. So in practice the witness and watcher network infrastructure is

1:07 critical

1:10 for being able to assert and prove that something is true and therefore to make

1:17 the KERI ecosystem actually work. they have a perfectly excellent they have
