Technical Summary
This specification registers a kind of URI that represents a JSON Web
Key (JWK) Thumbprint value. JWK Thumbprints are defined in RFC 7638.
This enables JWK Thumbprints to be used, for instance, as key
identifiers in contexts requiring URIs.

specification, which has at least one implementation.
