Bitcoin News said in a post on X that Spaces has introduced Trust Anchor, a system that lets applications verify human-readable identities directly on Bitcoin without relying on centralized servers. Under the setup, users receive a single Trust ID that can be scanned or pasted into Spaces-compatible apps to verify identifiers such as alice@bitcoin through locally validated Spaces protocol state. The Trust ID is derived from the Bitcoin block header chain and the accumulated state of Spaces. On macOS, the Veritas app can generate the ID without requiring users to run a full Bitcoin node. Users can also connect their own node or generate the same Trust ID through a Spaces client. According to the post, the goal is to use Bitcoin as the foundation for a decentralized certificate authority so apps can authenticate identities without having to trust a company-run server.
