Blockerts is built upon W3C DID and W3C Verified Credentials, W3C Linked Data Signatures, and Merkel trees (and JSON-LD). From the Blockerts FAQ https://www.blockcerts.org/guide/faq.html : > How are certificates revoked? > Even though certificates can be issued to a cohort of people, the issuer can still revoke from a single recipient. The Blockcerts standard supports a range of revocation techniques. Currently, the primary factor influencing the choice of revocation technique is the particular schema used. > The Open Badges specification allows a HTTP URI revocation list. Each id field in the revokedAssertions array should match the assertion.id field in the certificate to revoke.
