This section outlines the core concept utilized by the status list
mechanism described in this specification. At the most basic level, status
information for all <a>verifiable credentials</a> issued by an <a>issuer</a>
are expressed as items in a list. The <a>issuer</a> manages a list
list of all <a>verifiable credentials</a> that it has issued. Each
<a>verifiable credential</a> is associated with an item in the list. In
the case where a single bit specifies a status, such as "revocation" or
"suspension", if the bit is set, then the associated status, such as "revoked",
is assumed to be true.

When a single bit specifies a status, such as "revoked" or "suspended",
then that status is expected to be true when the bit is set (`1`) and
false when unset (`0`).

title="Status information is about the verifiable credential">
Ultimately, the status information associated with a particular
<a>verifiable credential</a> is about the verifiable credential itself and
might not always be about the underlying credential, such as
an educational degree. For example, in the case of an educational degree,
it is possible for the associated <a>verifiable credential</a> to be revoked
because the mechanism used to create the digital signature has been compromised,
while the underlying educational degree remains valid.
The status information associated with a particular <a>verifiable credential</a>
is about the <a>verifiable credential</a> itself and might not apply to any
underlying or backing <a>credential</a>, such as an educational degree. For
example, in the case of such an educational degree, it is possible for a
<a>verifiable credential</a> to be revoked because the mechanism used to
create its digital signature has been compromised, while the backing educational
degree remains valid.
