Abstract
Proxied cross-ledger authentication techniques are disclosed. In various embodiments, a verifier presentation requirement is determined, the verifier presentation requirement indicating a set of elements required to be provided by a client to authenticate the client. An authentication contract instance is created on a market maker ledger not associated specifically with the verifier, the authentication contract instance including at least a subset of the elements required by the verifier presentation requirement. A verifier system associated with the verifier presentation requirement is configured to read information from the authentication contract instance, obtain from an issuer associated with the client an issuer revocation data associated with the authentication contract instance, and use the information read from the authentication contract instance and the issuer revocation data to authenticate the client.
