Honestly? The angle that keeps pulling me baCk is not technOlogy.
It is administrAtion.
The first time I came across projEcts like SIGN, I dismissed them because they sounded too clEan compared to the mess of the real world. Credential verification. Token distribution. Fine. On pAper that sounds neat... But real systems are never neat. They involve delAys, edge cases, disputes, local rules, missing recOrds, duplicated claims, and people trying to game whatever procEss exists.
That is exActly why the problem matters.
At global scAle, the hard part is not simply proving something once. It is making that proof usable across institUtions, platforms, and jurisdictions that do not share the same assumPtions. A user may qualIfy in one system, but that does not mean another system will recognIze it.
A builder may automate distribution, but automation means very little if complIance, settlement, and auditAbility still break under pressure. Regulators do not care whether the rAils look elegAnt. They care whether the lOgic behind a payout or credential can be trAced, challenged, and defended.
Most current apprOaches still feel imprOvised. VerIfication here, distribution there, legal revIew somewhere later, and reconciliAtion happening in the backgrOund like an endless repAir job...
That is why SIGN makes more sense to me as administrAtive infrastructure. The people who would actually use it are the ones already drOwning in fragmented recOrds and payout complExity. It might work if it makes global coordinAtion less frAgile. It fails if it underestimates how stubborn institUtions, costs, and human incentIves usually are.
