Key Takeaways from Webinar «Digital Identity – Global Trend»
On 04.07.2025, DigiU’s CEO Alexey Ognev recapped the first half of the year: the ecosystem’s legal structure is finalized, three snapshots have been conducted, and a share for preferred shareholders has been allocated.
Alexey outlined the core concept driving the ecosystem’s development – digital identity – and highlighted a 12-24-month window of opportunity.
Here’s a breakdown of each of these areas:
Reorganization Completed: Structure, Shares, Protection
The first part of the meeting with Alexey focused on the reorganization results and the finalization of the preferred shareholder process. Key points:
– DigiU holding is being established in the BVI jurisdiction;– snapshots have been completed;
– registry of preferred shareholders has been formed.
– share allocation:
- 51% – team;
- 29% – preferred shareholders;
- 20% – reserve for future rounds.
«The controlling interest stays with the team, ensuring we stay on course. The 29% is the «risk premium» for investors who joined us early. Preferred shares are a core asset for a select few and will remain in trusted hands,» said DigiU’s CEO.
Digital Identity: Not a Trend, but the Infrastructure of the Future
Next, the CEO elaborated on the concept at the heart of the ecosystem – digital identity.
The webinar featured a video showcasing DigiU’s early ideas and forecasts in this space, now being realized in DigiU Alpha.
The modern approach defines 3 layers of digital identity:
- Core: identification, wallet, security, biometrics.
- Identity Layer: profile, achievements, legal recognition.
- Social Layer: behavior, rating, memory, interface, public image.
«Each layer and its components can represent a standalone product or a group of products and technologies. A keen observer can now see our ecosystem more broadly, our portfolio of products, ideas, and technologies through the lens of the Digital Identity concept. It’s clear how our developments align with the Core, Identity, and Social layers. This allows us to systematically build a digital identity, knowing which technologies we must own to ensure project sovereignty and which we can acquire as ready-made modules. By giving our developments a name and image, we’re infusing them with human qualities, accelerating our progress. Alpha is a suite of products with legal significance, autonomy, and inheritability. It will be an essential part of digital life – like a passport. We’re not Big Tech. We’re building an architecture where people are owners, not products», – emphasized Alexey Ognev.
Window of Opportunity and Quantum Leap
The final part of the webinar addressed the window of opportunity – a brief period to secure a strategic position in a growing market.
Why now is the ideal time to strengthen positions:
– global geopolitical shifts and rising digital autonomy;
– AI monopoly race (OpenAI, Google, Meta, Alibaba);
– political and regulatory transformations;
– demand for alternatives and AI sovereignty in BRICS, CIS, Asia, Africa, and Latin America.
«The AI market is nearing overheating and remains unstructured. Things are changing rapidly, creating a chance for companies like DigiU to make a quantum leap. This window will close in 12-24 months,» concluded Alexey Ognev.
The 04.07.2025 webinar marked DigiU’s transition to a mature stage. Reorganization is complete, investor rights are secured, digital identity is the ecosystem’s infrastructure core, and the strategic growth window is open.
The focus now shifts to launching Alpha, international rollouts, and expanding DigiU’s role as the creator of an ethical, autonomous, and accessible digital identity alternative to Big Tech for millions of users.
