When supporting unlinkability, a JPA can also support a form of "binding" that ensures any honest Prover is the only entity that can generate a valid proof when given a challenge from a Verifier.

This algorithmic-level binding primitive is different and separate from any higher level types of binding such as using a DID in a payload, a protocol-based Proof of Posession, keychain signatures, or ephemeral keys. All of those types of higher level bindings are not able to provide unlinkability for a Prover when presenting the same JWP to multiple Verifiers.

TODO:

  • Define Unlinkability (JWP)
  • Define Unlinkable Binding (JPA)
  • Define Linkable Binding (JPT)

Per discussion with @dwaite on the JWP editors' call, we think that these should be defined in JWP.
