Web3 certificates
A Badge is a Web3 certificate that in order to receive it, the person needs to go through a decentralized verification process.
Web3 certificates are similar to traditional certificates, but they have two big differences.
The first one is the verification process in order to obtain them. In traditional certifications, the verification process is carried out by a centralized authority, and in Web3 certifications, this process is done in a decentralized way by the community.
The second difference is the possible use cases. Having a Web3 certificate enables people to not only use them in the traditional world, but also in the Web3 world. Nowadays, people cannot use normal certificates, such as university degrees, or a course completion diploma, to apply for a job in a Web3 company.
This is because there is currently no way to connect these two worlds. TheBadge and its Web3 certificates allow this by wrapping a real-world certificate into a Web3 version of it.
