Re: [OAUTH-WG] Call for adoption - SD-JWT

[Warren Parad <[e-mail]>]

If we are in a offline scenario how does the verifier got ahold of the
public key associated with the id token?

They would need to be online, that defeats any benefit this could provide.

Or what if the token you have expires. Many providers issue tokens only
good for 1 hour. If that expires, the user has to go through the online
flow again.

Unless we can add some provisions to ensure long lived token validity, I
think in practice we're cripling the usefulness.
