Question 1

What is SIGN?

Accepted Answer

SIGN is a fungible token used in the Sign ecosystem. It is deployed on multiple public blockchains and is not the native coin of a Sign-specific underlying blockchain. Sign Protocol is an on-chain evidence layer for organizing structured claims, signatures, and verification. Protocol functionality and the SIGN token are not the same concept.

Question 2

How does Sign Protocol work as an evidence layer?

Accepted Answer

As an evidence layer, Sign Protocol supports creating, recording, and verifying structured on-chain claims. Typically, a schema first defines data fields and rules; an attester then creates an attestation that conforms to that template, after which other participants can query and verify it using the same structure.

Question 3

What role does a schema play in Sign Protocol?

Accepted Answer

A schema is a data template that defines in advance the fields and the ways a category of claims is organized and verified. A unified template allows information submitted by different attesters to be parsed by readers under the same rules, rather than treating each record as unstructured text.

Question 4

What is an attestation, and what does verifying it mean?

Accepted Answer

An attestation is a verifiable signed claim that conforms to a specified schema and records a statement by an attester about a particular object or fact. Verifiability can check its structure, signature, and record elements, but it does not automatically prove that a real-world statement is true. Readers must still decide whether to trust the attester.

Question 5

What is SIGN used for in the ecosystem?

Accepted Answer

SIGN can be used for functions in the Sign ecosystem related to protocol and attestation services, with specific uses determined by the protocol rules and application implementations in effect at the time. Holding SIGN does not automatically create an attestation or grant an address any particular qualification. Schemas and attestations describe how information is organized and verified.

Question 6

Does holding SIGN mean holding equity in the project?

Accepted Answer

No. SIGN does not represent equity in the issuer or any entity, and holding it does not automatically provide dividends, redemption rights, or claims against an entity. Ecosystem utility functions should not be interpreted as corporate ownership. Available token functions are determined by protocol and application rules.

Question 7

What are the characteristics of SIGN's supply mechanism?

Accepted Answer

The materials for this round state that SIGN has 10 billion tradable tokens and that supply will not automatically be rebased, elastically increased, or burned in response to short-term demand. This is not the same as circulating supply or tradable supply at any particular time. Without considering specific allocation, lock-up, or release arrangements, it cannot be used to infer market supply during a given period.

Question 8

What does SIGN's multi-chain deployment mean?

Accepted Answer

SIGN is deployed on public networks including Ethereum, BNB Chain, and Base. Multi-chain deployment means the token can exist on multiple networks, but balances, fees, and application support on each chain are still determined by that chain and its services. States on different networks should not be treated as the same on-chain record.

Question 9

What should I consider when using or transferring SIGN?

Accepted Answer

When transferring SIGN, verify the network where the token is held, the network of the receiving address, and whether the receiving wallet or service supports SIGN on that network. An on-chain transfer is executed only on the sending chain. If the recipient does not support that chain or asset version, it may not be recognized or processed as expected. Sending also requires the chain's native transaction fee and confirmation time.

Question 10

What is the difference between SIGN and an attestation?

Accepted Answer

SIGN is neither an attestation nor a certificate of ownership over the contents of an attestation; it is an ecosystem token. An attestation, by contrast, is a verifiable claim created according to a schema. Holding SIGN does not mean that an address has been attested. Likewise, the existence of an attestation does not automatically grant its subject a SIGN balance.

Question 11

Why must the trustworthiness of an attester still be assessed for a verifiable claim?

Accepted Answer

Verifiability addresses whether a claim's structure, signature, and record can be checked under the rules, but it does not replace judgment about the source of the claim. Readers should identify the applicable schema, verify the attestation's verifiable elements, and decide whether they trust the entity that made the claim.

Question 12

Where can I find official information about SIGN and Sign Protocol?

Accepted Answer

SIGN's token characteristics, supply statements, and multi-chain deployment can be found in Sign's MiCA Whitepaper. Schemas, attestations, and the evidence-layer mechanism can be found in the Sign Protocol documentation. Token materials and protocol materials should be checked separately to avoid confusing protocol functions, token uses, and entity rights.
