Sign Doesn’t Decide at the Attestation. It Decides Before It Exists
That is what makes Sign Protocol more interesting than people first assume. The attestation is not the real decision. It is the recorded proof of a decision that was already made through rules, schemas, eligibility checks, and system logic. Sign’s own docs describe schemas as the structure that defines how facts are expressed, while attestations are the signed records that follow that structure. That means the real power sits in how the verification standard is designed before the data is ever written. To me, that is a much stronger model for Web3. It shifts the focus from just storing claims onchain to building systems where decisions are more consistent, inspectable, and reusable across apps. That is not just data recording. That is infrastructure for accountable trust.
