No, did:plc is centralised, not federated or anything. The whole ecosystem relies on a server at Blue Sky PBC

While did:plc was intended to be centralised from the start and under open governance (https://docs.bsky.app/blog/plc-directory-org), did: provided a framework to adopt other key resolution methods.

As part of the IETF work (https://docs.bsky.app/blog/taking-at-to-ietf) this is a hotly debated area and I’d expect some solid evolution to happen as part of that process, super encourage anyone interested to get involved there!

  • Having a framework to provide alternative key resolution methods isn't enough. You need alternative key resolution methods.
