Overview

Digital Trust Signal

In the Digital World, members can build a Digital Trust Signal connected to their Digital Identity.

The signal reflects the trustworthiness of a Digital Individual, a Digital Organization (such as an Association, Trust, or Company), or a Digital Asset, on a scale of 0-1000. It's intended to help you make more informed decisions about the people and entities you connect with online, as one input among others - it does not guarantee an outcome.

Trustworthy

Use trust signal data as one input when deciding who to transact, connect, or collaborate with.

Identity Linked

Trust signals are connected to Digital Identities - not anonymous handles.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Digital Trust Signal based on?

A Digital Trust Signal is generated from activity and data available within the Digital World that relates to a Digital Individual, Digital Organization, or Digital Asset. It's intended as one reference point among others, not a complete profile.

Is a Digital Trust Signal the same as a credit score or background check?

No. A Digital Trust Signal is not a government-issued credit score, background check, or legal record, and it is not a certified assessment of legal, financial, or creditworthiness status.

Can a Digital Trust Signal be manipulated?

Digital World's trust signal approach is designed to make manipulation harder, but no scoring system can claim to be completely immune to gaming or manipulation. Trust signals should be treated as one input, not a guarantee of trustworthiness.

Do I have to build a Digital Trust Signal?

Participation depends on the Digital World services you use. Some services and interactions may rely on trust signal data more than others.

How is a Digital Organization's or Digital Asset's trust signal different from an individual's?

The same 0-1000 scale is used, but the underlying data differs - an individual's trust signal draws on their Digital Identity activity, while an organization's or asset's trust signal draws on data relevant to that entity, such as its formation records, transaction history, or verified attributes.

Disclaimer: Digital Trust Signals are generated from data available within the Digital World and reflect one measure of trust; they are not a government-issued credit score, background check, or legal record, and are not a certified assessment of legal, financial, or creditworthiness status. Trust signals can be affected by incomplete or evolving data and should not be relied upon as the sole basis for legal, financial, or safety decisions.
