Thinking deeply about $SIGN digital sovereign infra… @SignOfficial nails trust distribution at the verification layer, but let’s be honest — it all starts (and quietly depends) on the issuers
They’re the ones who decide who qualifies, what gets attested, and exactly how strict the process really is. By the time the credential lands in a user’s wallet, the big decisions are already locked in. The protocol just verifies the signature and validity — it doesn’t question the issuer’s rigor.
Two identical-looking credentials, one from a bulletproof issuer and one from a lax one, get treated exactly the same by $SIGN.
Trust doesn’t disappear… it just relocates upstream.
So is it truly distributed, or just shifted to a new bottleneck?
