The following describes standard functions for a unique identity for humans and machines. This identity can hold keys to sign actions (transactions, documents, logins, access, etc), and claims, which are attested from third parties (issuers) and self attested, as well as a proxy function to act directly on the blockchain.

ERC: Identity Claims
{
uint256 claimType;
address issuer;
uint256 signatureType;
bytes signature; // holder.address + claimType + claim
bytes claim;
string uri;
}

ERC: Identity Off-Chain Usage
1. Random String
2. Random String +
Identity Address
-> signed
3. getClaim()
4. Check claim

ERC: Identity On-Chain Usage
2. getClaim()
1. superCoolFunc()
3. Check claim
(check claim
signature get key)
4. Check if claim issuer
still holds key
from signature
Issuer
5. continue execution of
superCoolFunc()

ERC: Identity Claim Checking
{
uint256 claimType;
address issuer;
uint256 signatureType;
bytes signature; // holder.address + claimType + claim
bytes claim;
string uri;
}
1. Check which signature type is used
2. Build the signed hash
keccak256(address holder_address + uint256 _claimType + bytes _claim)
3. Recover address k from signature
4. Check if issuer identity contract still holds address k
5.
