1. A multi-purpose smart card in a dynamic environment, the dynamic environment comprising an operative field configured as a data connection and communication system, the multi-purpose smart card comprising:
a top layer including a code display window for presentation of a One Time Password (OTP);
a bottom layer including a biometric reader, a microprocessor with a memory that is suitable to retain biometric information of a user generated by the biometric reader wherein the multi-purpose smart card is configured to (i) upload into the memory user biometric data, and (ii) allow the user to perform an operation of pairing in which the user authenticates himself to the smart card by providing biometric information to the smart card at the biometric reader; and
at least one sensor suitable to enable at least one of establishing and losing trust between the smart card and the user and configured as part of a management of trust between the smart card and the user to allow for at least one trust verification parameter (TVP) to be tested and confirmed before the multi-purpose smart card releases data as part of a secured digital transaction.
