Notición!
A la práctica significa que cualquier grupo de investigación afiliado a una institución española podrá enviar sus artículos a #ORE para que sean publicados allí, sin coste, si pasan la revisión por pares abierta.
Esto será operativo a partir de este otoño🚀
✅ España se incorpora a @OpenResearch_EU, la plataforma pública de publicación científica en acceso abierto impulsada por la Comisión Europea.
📖 @cienciagob representará a nuestro país en la plataforma a través de la @FECYT_Ciencia.

The EUDI Wallet consultation has closed. 43 contributions. One clear message: 3 credential formats referenced, only 2 with regulatory scaffolding to function. EU investment exposed.

Without Commission W3C-VC adaptations, each Member State decides independently.
Spain defines its EAA mapping. Germany does the same. Neither aligned.
Same regulatory work, 27 times instead of once — with divergent results.
The antithesis of harmonisation.

EdTech companies building on W3C Verifiable Credentials — a thread on why the draft EUDI Wallet Implementing Regulations affect your product roadmap directly. 🧵
Three credential formats referenced. Only two with regulatory scaffolding.

DC4EU validated W3C-VC credentials across 36 institutions, 10 countries. The schemas exist. The technology works.
The regulatory scaffolding doesn't.
If your product uses W3C-VC, Have Your Say is open until early March. Your voice matters.

European EdTech Alliance, EdTech Europe, national associations:
A collective contribution to Have Your Say on W3C-VC regulatory support carries more weight than individual inputs.
The format question is a market access question for EU SMEs.

The question is not whether Europe needs W3C-VC - the Commission already answered that by referencing it.
The question is whether it will complete the scaffolding-or leave a format formally included but practically excluded.

The draft regulations reference three credential formats: mdoc, SD-JWT VC, and W3C-VC (via ETSI TS 119 472-1 clause 7).
For mdoc and SD-JWT VC: complete encoding tables, presentation profiles, issuance protocols, revocation rules.
For W3C-VC: none of the above.

3 credential formats are not redundancy; each occupies a distinct functional space
mdoc: proximity presentation
SD-JWT VC: lightweight remote presentation
W3C-VC: rich semantics, linked data, native unlinkability, suspension support
Complementary-Only 2 with regulatory support.

The Have Your Say consultation is open until early March.
If you work in education, professional qualifications, digital identity, trust services, or cross-border credential verification — your input matters.

The fix isn't complicated:
The Commission should issue a standardisation request to ETSI ESI for a European HAIP covering all three formats.
The schemas exist. The pilots validated them. What remains is integration, not invention.
8 types of regulatory action identified.

The suspension gap:
Token Status List (chosen for mdoc/SD-JWT VC) supports only permanent revocation
Several Member States legally require suspension
Bitstring Status List (W3C-native) supports both
Regulation 2024/1183 contemplates suspension. The Implementing Acts eliminate it

The investment at stake:
DC4EU: €19M, 80 orgs, 23 States — built on W3C-VC
EBSI: PID developed in W3C-VCDM by the Commission itself
Catena-X, Gaia-X: W3C-VC for industrial attestations
Education sector: complete EAA catalogue in W3C-VC
Validated. Proven. Without regulatory home

The EU Parliament resolution of 22 Jan 2026 on technological sovereignty calls for:
✅ Open standards
✅ No vendor lock-ins
✅ Governance without centralised corporate control
Published two weeks before these draft regulations — which do the opposite for credential formats.

The sovereignty dimension:
mdoc → governed by ISO/IEC, driven by Apple/Google
SD-JWT VC → governed by IETF/OpenID(US Big Tech)
W3C-VC → semantic layer is decentralised, jurisdiction-controlled
Full regulatory support to the first two. Most sovereignty-aligned format nothing.

Why does this matter?
Only JSON-LD W3C-VC supports semantic interoperability.
An architect's qualification from Spain and a Berufsqualifikation from Germany can be understood as equivalent, without bilateral mapping.
SD-JWT VC and mdoc transport data. W3C-VC transports meaning.

This creates four asymmetries:
1⃣ No PID encoding tables for W3C-VC
2⃣ No Commission adaptations for W3C-VC attestations
3⃣ No presentation profile for embedded proofs
4⃣ No regulated issuance protocol
A format that can be referenced but not operationally used.
