ERC 725 is a generic standard for execution and data store. Its most common implementation is a blockchain-based identity/smart contract account. The current implementation is called Universal Profiles / ERC725Account and can be found on the LUKSO Blockchain, an Ethereum twin network
ERC 725 allows for self-sovereign identity. Users should be able to own and manage their identity instead of ceding ownership of identity to centralized organizations. We have seen the negative effects of having centralized identity with damaging leaks. An open, extensible standard for accounts will enable decentralized reputation, governance, and more. Users will be able to take their identity across different Dapps and platforms that support this standard.

"Fabian Vogelsteller, the creator of the Mist Browser and web3.js, is working on a new identity standard for Ethereum, ERC 725."
Read more »"To have an identity that people use and trusts, it needs to be on a trustless layer like Ethereum, or another public blockchain."
Read more »"If you are who you say you are, then why must you prove it over and over again? One day, a blockchain-based standard could make the monotony of identity verification a relic of the past."
Read more »"You can think of ERC 725-enabled identity a bit like Facebook Connect, but without the Facebook."
Read more »"User identity management, however, remains critical to any dApps and is currently managed by “trusted” third parties—a problem the ERC725 identity standard aims to solve."
Read more »"Although ERC 725 is still at an early stage, we believe it has great potential and our intention is to use it as the basis for managing identity and trust at Origin."
