For the "Learning resources" section, I would also recommend checking ION¹. I have tested a few DID Methods including Sovrin, Veres One, and ION, and the latter is the most spec-adherent and well-implemented, apart from receiving funding from companies like Microsoft and TBD (which is proposing web5 in the first place). And yes, it is the only DID Method to receive support from big tech (was incubated within Microsoft, then donated to the Decentralized Identity Foundation), and it also happens to be a technically better solution.

Why I think it is better: (1) don't need a new blockchain (re-uses Bitcoin's); and (2) implements DIDs / DID Documents with all needed features (e.g. last time I tried, Sovrin's implementation did not support serviceEndpoints!)

ION makes bad choices that are disastrous for user privacy. They don't even acknowledge these problems, let alone propose a solution for them. See: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32283529
