To be honest: What changed my mind about projEcts like this was realizing the intErnet still does a poor job with consEquences... It can show that something happEned. It can record that a wallet recEived something. It can display a badge, a claim, a scOre, a history. But once that proof is supposed to mattEr in the real world, everything gets slOwer and less certAin.
That is the part people tend to skIp over...
A credEntial is easy to talk about in abstrAct terms. In practice, it usually leads to a decIsion. Someone gets accEss. Someone qualifies for a rewArd. Someone receives a payMent. Someone is exclUded. And the moment those outcomes carry legal, finAncial, or institUtional weight, the usual intErnet shortcuts stop looking good enOugh.
Most systems still feel stItched together from sepArate eras. Verification lives in one plAce. Records in anothEr. Payments somewhere else. ComplIance arrives later and makes the whole thing heavIer. Builders spend time connEcting tools that were never designed to agrEe with each other. Users repEat themselves. Institutions ask for audIt trails. Regulators ask who is responsIble when a false claim turns into a real transFer of value.
That is why SIGN makes more sEnse to me as back-end infrastrUcture than as a big idEa. The real appeal is not novElty. It is whether it can make verification and distrIbution behave like parts of the same sysTem instead of a chain of exceptIons.
The people who would use it are the ones already deAling with scale, frAud, fragmented recOrds, and payout complExity. It works only if it stays legIble, affordAble, and reliAble when pressure rises... Otherwise it becomes one more lAyer in a stack that already has too many...
