"We are excited about the release of ABT Wallet 2.0 and enabling decentralized identity to be a part of everyone's daily life. For the first time, users can experience the benefits of decentralized identity and blockchain technologies, but in a way that makes sense," said Robert Mao, CEO of ArcBlock.

Every interaction is designed to be useful and user-friendly. Moreover, we've added new capabilities that allow users to manage their personal and professional digital properties with ease."

Since the release of the first version of ABT Wallet, ArcBlock's team worked with users and customers to get feedback on what they wanted in the next ABT Wallet release. With ABT Wallet 1.0, users could use secure sign-up and login, easily verify claims, proofs and attestations, and had unparalleled privacy. However, the feedback demonstrated that these interacts still focused on people who were already familiar with blockchain. With ABT Wallet 2.0, ArcBlock is making the decentralized identity wallet useful to everyone in a way that was already familiar. With ABT Wallet, users can easily log in and access at their place of employment, create and use websites and applications with user-defined profiles, request, share and send documents, or even make a payment at their local coffee shop and so much more.
