That time when I opened a long position with a friend, we discussed it together and thought the market was right to enter. As a result, it plummeted and we lost quite a bit. Later, he changed the way he spoke to me, and the meaning was very obvious.
This matter was my fault. I wanted to explain at the time but found that I had nothing to present.

This feeling is familiar—it's not the first time that a verbally discussed matter went wrong, and the person who ends up unable to clarify is always the one who takes the blame.

The EthSign for @SignOfficial solves this problem of unclear post-decision communication in joint decisions.

If at that time our decision to go long had been documented through EthSign with an on-chain record confirming the entry price, position ratio, stop-loss conditions, and timestamps of both signatures written down,

After the loss, he wanted to push all the blame onto me, but the on-chain record clearly states that at that moment we both confirmed it together. It’s not just what I said; it’s written on-chain.

The attestation mechanism of Sign Protocol turns this matter of two people making a decision together from a conversation that disappeared in voice into an independently existing verifiable record on-chain. Joint decision-making means both parties' signatures are there on-chain.

Neither party can later absolve themselves of responsibility alone.

Of course, friends making trading decisions wouldn’t think to sign an on-chain agreement.
But after that sharp decline, what bothered me most was not the loss itself, but the fact that something discussed together ended up being my fault alone.

If there had been a record at that time, at least we would be facing the same outcome, not just me carrying it alone.

They told me that it's possible to open 20 Mixue Ice City in the middle, is that true?

A while ago, I had a good friend who couldn't find a job, so I helped him get a referral, thinking that friends should help each other in tough times. Later, I heard through others that he was saying I had let him down.

When I heard about this, I felt truly heartbroken—here I was, trying to help him, and it turned out to be my fault.

This incident made me think clearly about one question: what was my role when I referred him for the job, what did I promise, and where are my boundaries of responsibility?

The EthSign mechanism for @SignOfficial addresses the problem of ambiguous responsibilities for referees. If I had recorded the referral on-chain through EthSign—my role would have been just to connect him without being responsible for his job performance.

Both parties would confirm and sign that boundary on-chain, and anyone could check it. If he went around saying I let him down, the on-chain record would directly clarify where my responsibility ended.

Moreover, the attestation from Sign Protocol turns verbal referral relationships into on-chain records with defined boundaries. When disputes arise, it’s not about who can shout louder; it’s about what is documented on-chain.
Referrers and guarantors are two completely different things, and clearly defining that boundary on-chain makes it impossible to be misrepresented.

Of course, friends referring each other for jobs today may not think to sign an on-chain agreement; changing habits takes time, and this is an inference, not a reality.

But this need is very real—there are not just me and others who have been bitten back by those we helped.

I often have a few friends I have known for many years who come to borrow money every now and then. If I don't lend it, our long-standing relationship makes it hard to say no; if I do lend it, I know in my heart that I probably won't get it back.

Every time I lend money, I feel this way. If I don’t lend it, it will be nearly impossible to maintain our relationship; if I do lend it, asking for it back will also be difficult.

Throughout the borrowing process, nothing has ever protected me. There are no IOUs, no repayment agreements, no records clearly stating how much was borrowed, when it should be paid back, or what happens if it isn’t.

The EthSign mechanism of @SignOfficial directly addresses this scenario. When friends borrow money, they can sign an on-chain loan agreement using EthSign, with the loan amount, repayment time, and both signatures all recorded on the blockchain.

The timestamp solidifies that neither party can later say, "I don’t remember this happening." The key point is that this record does not need to be maintained by personal relationships; the evidence on the chain is unrelated to emotions—if it’s paid back, it’s paid back; if it’s not, it’s not.

More importantly, having an on-chain loan record makes asking for money no longer a matter of being unfriendly, but rather according to our initial agreement. If the other party does not pay it back, they are in breach of contract, not you being stingy.

This separates the borrowing relationship from emotional coercion, protecting not just the money, but your autonomy in this relationship.

Of course, friends who are willing to sign an on-chain loan agreement are often those who originally intended to repay the money. Those who truly want to default would not agree to sign this limitation and need to think it through.
But at least at the moment of signing, both parties' attitudes toward this money have already clarified the issue.

Before, a friend asked me to help at his barbecue restaurant, saying it would be 500 yuan a day.
I specifically took leave to help for almost a month, chopping vegetables and preparing ingredients every day, and it was exhausting.

When it came time to ask for the money, he came up with various excuses, saying business was bad and to wait a bit longer. I chased him for over a month before finally getting the money back. During that time, every time I asked for the money, I felt like I was begging.

What bothered me the most about this was not the money, but the fact that I had no proof of the agreed amount per day. Since it was verbal without a contract, he could deny it, and I really had no way to do anything about it. Fortunately, in the end, I was given the money.

And the EthSign mechanism for @SignOfficial addresses the issue of unclear verbal agreements.
Every labor agreement signed through EthSign records the work content, daily wage standards, and settlement cycles on the chain at the moment of signing, along with the timestamps of both parties' signatures and the document hash.

No party can later claim that what we said at the time was not the case. If I had such a blockchain agreement, any excuses my friend made to delay would have already been clarified by the on-chain breach record, eliminating the need for me to chase for over a month.

Moreover, the Sign Protocol's attestation can also create independent on-chain nodes for daily attendance records and work completion status.

Each node has a timestamp, detailing how many days were worked and what was completed, and whether both parties confirm it can all be checked.
This directly constrains those who exploit free labor through verbal promises, as on-chain records cannot be altered.
Of course, most people currently do not think to sign on-chain agreements when asking friends for help; a shift in user habits takes time, and it’s still more of a conjecture than a reality.

But this need is very real—there are not just me who have been used as free labor.

Binance Ai Pro is currently in testing, and here are my feelings about it.
1. Currently, Binance Ai Pro cannot trade independently and requires you to provide direction. It seems that the corresponding skills are not installed, and each trade requires your confirmation.

2. Binance Ai Pro is external software and not developed by Binance itself.

3. Binance Ai Pro can actively talk to you, which I am very satisfied with; it's evident that the Binance team has put in effort.

4. Binance Ai Pro can connect with the little lobster like a flying connection for easier control.

5. The current response of Binance Ai Pro is a bit slow; sometimes it takes a long time to consider, which needs improvement.

6. It is prone to errors, which is not very friendly for beginners and needs enhancement. I had it open a trade yesterday, and then it made an error, luckily I only put in 100U. I hesitated and didn't handle it because I was too tired yesterday. It seems like the key needs to be changed. This point needs to be taken seriously by the Binance team.

I will later publish a guide on connecting Binance Ai Pro to other software for your convenience @币安广场 #币安Ai

Every month, the fixed salary is slightly reduced due to what is called automatic insurance deduction. I have always felt that this money is wasted since I am young and healthy and do not need it.
But there's no choice; the agreement specifies that regardless of whether you want it or not, it will be deducted on time.

Later, I thought about this money not being for your present self, but for your future self at some point in time.

In the block reward of $NIGHT , there is a similar design.

In the white paper @MidnightNetwork , a system for distributing block rewards is described. The basic rewards generated by each block are not entirely given to the block producer, but are automatically divided into two parts.

The block producer takes the larger share, while the remaining part flows into the on-chain Treasury based on the actual utilization rate of the block. The higher the proportion flowing into the Treasury, the more the block producer receives as the block fills up. This is executed automatically at the protocol level and requires no manual intervention or governance voting.

What is the accumulated funding in the Treasury used for?
The white paper states it is for ecological growth activities—developer incentives, infrastructure development, and community projects. The specific uses will be decided by the holders of #night through future decentralized governance mechanisms.

Currently, the tokens in the Treasury are locked and can only be utilized once the governance mechanism is online.

I think there is a noteworthy detail that the Treasury's income is directly linked to the network's vacancy rate.
The more idle the network, the emptier the blocks, and the higher the proportion flowing into the Treasury per block. It seems a bit counterintuitive—when the network is not used, the Treasury actually receives more.

But from another perspective, this is using the early low-activity time window to accumulate startup funds for the Treasury until the network truly becomes active. The block producer receives the larger share based on transaction volume rather than vacancy rate.

The income structure of the Treasury differs between the early and mature stages.
Of course, the Treasury is currently locked, and when the governance mechanism will go online and how the funds will be distributed are details that have not yet been disclosed.

The money is there, but who decides how to spend it is still an open question.

I still don't want to pay that insurance fee, but I know it's there. The NIGHT in the Treasury is the same, locked there, waiting to be used where it is needed.

Recently, I am preparing to switch to a new community and want to apply for an administrator position. I thought that since I have experience managing a community of over 200 people and the activity level was good, it shouldn't be a big problem. However, the other party took a glance and directly said that your community is not famous.

I believe the core issue is not whether that community is famous, but that the contribution record cannot exist independently from the platform.

The management experience you accumulate in Community A cannot be taken with you when you move to another place. Whether the other party recognizes it depends entirely on their mood, and there is no third party that can verify it.

@SignOfficial 's verifiable credential directly addressed this issue. If I had on-chain records of my management in that community of 200 people—active member count, management duration, and handling of tasks generated as Sign Protocol's attestation.

This credential does not belong to that community platform; it exists independently on-chain, and anyone can verify it without needing that community to be famous for it to be valid.

What the new community sees is not "I haven't heard of this platform," but a signed on-chain contribution record with specific data. Fame has nothing to do with the authenticity of the record.

$SIGN 's identity system supports creating such contribution records into portable on-chain credentials that can be taken to another platform community or even to another industry without needing to prove oneself all over again.

This is truly a solution for those who have worked hard on small platforms—your experience should be valuable and should not be determined by whether the other party recognizes the place you worked at.

Of course, for this system to be implemented, enough communities and platforms need to adopt the same standards. Right now, it is still an inference rather than a reality timeline; it is uncertain. But this demand is something that people like me genuinely need.

During the years of supervising, our startup team had only a few people, and we managed to expand the stores from zero to over 100. The location selection, training, and operational standards for each store were developed by us step by step.

Later, our superior left, and we were forced to resign. Now that brand has expanded to over 1000 stores.
It's not jealousy; it's a feeling of unwillingness, as if that intense period never existed, with nothing to prove that we were the ones who made it happen.

This feeling reminds me of what @SignOfficial is doing. The attestation mechanism of Sign Protocol is fundamentally about creating a verifiable record that states someone did something at a certain point in time, contributed what, and achieved what standard.

Creating a verifiable record that exists independently on the blockchain. It does not rely on any company for custody, nor does it depend on any superior to acknowledge the record on-chain.

If every store we supervised back then, every training session, and every achievement record had generated an on-chain attestation, that record would not disappear because of leadership changes, nor would it reset because we were forced to leave.

I could take that on-chain record anywhere and say,
The expansion of these 30 stores has my signature on it. No one can deny it, because the evidence is not in the hands of the company, but on the blockchain.

In the new identity system of $SIGN , verifiable credentials (VC) support turning individual contributions, qualifications, and work achievements into portable on-chain credentials, which do not need to be proven again even if one changes platforms, companies, or industries.
This is truly meaningful for those who contributed the most during the startup phase but ended up with nothing to take away.

Of course, for this system to be implemented in real workplace scenarios, employers need to be willing to adopt it, and the industry needs to recognize on-chain contribution records as valid proof. Currently, it is still a hypothesis, not a reality.

But I feel this demand is genuine enough—I'm not the only one who feels unwilling.
