(
)
Holder A role played by an Entity when it is issued a Credential by an Issuer. The Holder may or may not be the Subject of the Credential. (There are many use cases in which the Holder is not the Subject, e.g., a birth certificate where the Subject is a baby and both the mother and father may be Holders.) If the Credential supports Zero Knowledge Proofs, the Holder is also the Prover. Based on the definition provided by the W3C Verifiable Claims Working Group.
