Abstract - The whole concept of self-sovereign identity (SSI) is gaining a lot of optimism, with the emerging Blockchain Technology in the current tech-scenario. It is a major change in how online interactions will take place in the future considering the identity of each user. The different aspects of SSI are examined by various works in the literature This paper surveys the origin of identity, various digital identity models and how it leads to self-sovereign identity. It then goes on to discuss related research, as well as the SSI's building blocks, which include decentralized IDs, verifiable credentials, a distributed ledger, and a variety of privacy mechanisms. Finally, it proposes a solution for self-sovereign identity by using the Ethereum platform for blockchain and other technologies
