Safe Deposit Node Information

Introduction

Safe Deposit Node explores a different way to think about digital identity.

Instead of treating identity and important personal records as accounts that live inside platforms, the concept anchors them to something the individual owns — a name. In this model, identity is not tied to a service that can change, expire, or disappear, but to a durable, user-controlled reference point.

This site provides a high-level overview of that idea and why it matters.

The Core Idea

Most digital identity systems today are built around access. You create accounts, log in, and trust platforms to hold your information. Over time, this leads to fragmentation, dependency, and loss of continuity as services evolve or shut down.

Safe Deposit Node proposes a simple shift:

Identity should be anchored to a user-owned name, not to a platform.

By using a domain as a long-term digital anchor, identity and records can remain stable while the tools, storage systems, and technologies connected to them change over time.

What This Site Is (and Isn’t)

This .info site is a conceptual reference.

It exists to:

  • Outline the idea of user-owned digital identity anchors

  • Explain why name-based ownership matters

  • Provide context for a working reference implementation

  • It is not the vault itself, and it does not store personal data or identities.

Safe Deposit Node treats identity as something you establish once and carry forward —
not something you repeatedly recreate inside platforms.
