Why Credentials?


BRING STRICTLY VALIDATED SOCIAL PROOF

Forget about likes or blue checks, that can be easily faked, boted or bought.
Our protocol strictly validates your claim with randomly selected anonymous true
peers from your community, and creates an inmutable proof of certification,
valid forever (or as long as the credential should be valid).




IMPROVE GOVERNANCE AND TRANSPARENCY

Credentials facilitate the assignment of roles and responsibilities for
participating in governance activities, promoting transparent decision-making,
accountability, equitable participation, and trust. With Blockchain technology,
they offer a level of transparency that traditional systems lack, making it
easier to verify credentials and achievements.




ARE MORE THAN BADGES

While similar to badges in flexibility, our credentials are more powerful
because they undergo a strict and dependable community-based process to validate
their authenticity. While also ensuring privacy and confidentiality of the
evidence data using MINA Zero Knowledge proofs.




ARE PROUDLY SHOWN OFF

Credentials recognize a wide range of contributions within a community and
signal both social and professional status. Earned through our stringent and
transparent community-based process, they become as source of pride for the
holder.




FAIRLY REWARD CONTRIBUTIONS

Credentials serve as a powerful motivator within a community, recognizing and
rewarding a wide range of contributions in a transparent and equitable manner,
for a more inclusive and diverse community. By promoting equitable rewards,
credentials help to create a more engaged and motivated community




PROMOTE ENGAGEMENT AND PARTICIPATION

Credentials strengthen community engagement by fostering a sense of belonging
and enabling individuals to connect and collaborate. By recognizing and
rewarding contributions they encourage active participation in the community.




BUILD TRUST AND REPUTATION

Credentials establish trust and credibility within a community, verifying
skills, expertise, and contributions and providing a way to establish a
reputation. And our strict and dependable community-based process to validate
their authenticity provides an unprecendent level of trust.



Why socialcap?

At the heart of Socialcap is our community-based attestation protocol that
enables easy self-validation and issuance of credentials using a transparent and
repeatable process, while preserving privacy and confidentiality.

By using social proof, validators anonymity, random selection, secret voting,
self-auditing, and community rules, our protocol ensures that the validation
process is fair, unbiased, and reliable.

Socialcap is designed to be community-driven, allowing each community to set its
own claim types, credential prices, validation rules and badges. In this way,
the protocol is flexible and can be customized to fit a wide range of use cases.

Using MINA Zero Knowledege proofs we are building the private and confidential
future we all deserve.

FAQ

Why credentials?



The Web3 is all about communities, and credentials are becoming an essential
building block for them, because:



Serve as both a social and professional "signal" in the Web3 space, as evidenced
by the growing popularity of POAP badges and other NFTs used to show wealth or
belonging. Promote participation & engagement within the community and outside
of it. Act as rewards for prominent members, showing appreciation for their
work. Can be used as roles in apps and other selected activities.

In conclusion, credentials level up the power of the community !



What is social capital?


With the growing importance of credentials in Web3 communities as both a social
and professional "signal" (as demonstrated by the popularity of POAPs and other
NFTs used to show wealth or belonging), it's crucial to have a streamlined,
trusted and reliable system for validating claims.

As the Web3 ecosystem continues to expand, the importance of credentials as a
means of establishing social status and verifying professional qualifications
will only increase, creating a huge market for all credential protocols.

What types of claims and credentials will we validate and issue?


We will first focus on public credentials which are of particular value to a
given Web3 community, that can be validated and issued by the said community
without any legal or governmental interference or issues.

A typical case would be a “Best contributor for zkIgnite Cohort 1 2023”
credential, which may be of significance to this particular community, but has
no other legal implications or liabilities.

Why only public credentials ?


People wants to show their credentials to the community (and to the world) as a
proof of membership, participation, engagement, skills, etc. So no credential
privacy is required here as both which applicant owns a credential and which
credentials she owns will be public info.

We will leave other types of credentials (such as academic or professional
certifications) which may have a wide set of legal implications and liabilities
to a later phase of the protocol, even though we consider that (on the technical
side) it will be rather straightforward by an admin to set an usable master plan
for this type of claims.
