NOTE: The first two sets of examples in this section are based on the verification metadata formats defined by the did:webvh and did:webs methods, both of which have the constraint of being valid did:web DID. By contrast, a did:scid is not a valid did:web DID because are web-based DID methods. While did:scid supports storing verification metadata on a web server, it is not strictly a web-based DID method because: a) it does not include any web location information in the DID itself (the location information is only in a did:scid URL parameter), and b) did:scid supports storing verification metadata in other locations, including blockchains, DHTs, and local storage in peer-to-peer usages.

IMPORTANT: Although the Webvh method is the underlying basis, these examples are based on a (currently hypothetical) did:scid:vh method specification. This would be a separate specification (or perhaps an appendix to the did:webvh method specification) that specifies how the Webvh method is adapted to become a did:scid:vh method. At a minimum it this did:scid:vh method specification would cover:

1. How the did:scid:vh method-specific-id is generated;

2. How the Webvh DID documents and verifiable history file is portable.
