According to Cardano Foundation, on May 2, the foundation released a new episode of its “Let’s Talk Cardano” podcast series featuring Douglas Heintzman of the Blockchain Research Institute, exploring Digital Trust Infrastructure (DTI). The episode discusses a five-layer framework designed to build trust into internet systems: Trusted Data Fabric (cryptographic proofs and privacy-preserving verification), Digital Identity (decentralized IDs and verifiable credentials), Authoritative Registries (secure real-world data exchange), Programmable Payments (smart contract-based financial systems), and Universal Basic Intelligence (trusted AI agents acting on verified personal data). The initiative positions Cardano as infrastructure for governments, enterprises, healthcare systems, and cross-border compliance networks.
