Decentralized Universal Resource Name (URN) DID Method (Web 7.0)

This document specifies the did7:web7 Decentralized Identifier (DID) method, which defines a deterministic mapping from Uniform Resource Names (URNs) (RFC 8141) into a DID-compatible identifier format called a Decentralized Universal Resource Name (URN). The did7:web7 method preserves URN semantics, enables DID resolution without mandatory centralized infrastructure, and provides optional cryptographic and service-layer extensibility. The method is fully compatible with the W3C DID Core specification (W3C DID Core, 2022) and the broader DID ecosystem.
