A verifiable career record for smart contract developers, built on Stellar.
Smart contract developers have no portable record of their work. GitHub portfolios are unverifiable — anyone can fork code and claim authorship. Resumes are claims without proof. And when capital flows through a contract, the question “who built this, and what's their track record?” has no good answer.
Every contract deployed to a public chain is cryptographically tied to the wallet that signed for it. That binding is unforgeable. Signet turns that binding into a career record: every contract a developer has shipped, the activity it's seen, the outcomes it's had — aggregated into one verifiable profile.
The Identity Registry is deployed and initialized on Stellar testnet, and handle-to-wallet bindings are claimed on-chain: a wallet owner authorizes a claim(handle, wallet) call, and Soroban requires a valid signature from that wallet's key, so no off-chain admin can mint an identity. Profiles at /p/{handle} and the /handles directory read those bindings live from the registry. The demo profiles linked below are a separate, explicitly-labelled preview — curated personas rendering synthetic testnet activity to demonstrate the interface — and are not themselves chain-bound handles.
Terminal wallet linking. npx @signet/cli link binds the deploy wallet you ship contracts from to your claimed handle, proving control of the key from your terminal. It is the step that turns a claimed handle into an indexed profile — a handle claimed with a browser wallet points at an address that has usually deployed nothing, so the profile stays empty until a deploy wallet is linked. The full flow will be documented in docs/CLI.md.Indexer service. Continuous monitoring of registered wallets, capturing deployments and invocations in near real-time with full historical coverage.Reputation primitives. Peer attestations, outcome tracking (TVL handled, incidents, bug bounty payouts), and integrations with audit firms, grant programs, and hiring tools.Public SDK. Lets any external tool — a wallet, a grant application form, an insurance protocol — query a developer's Signet record and use it as input.
Stellar's institutional and RWA positioning means real, regulated capital flows through Soroban contracts — MoneyGram, Franklin Templeton, Circle. On chains where serious money is at stake, the question of who built a contract isn't academic. Signet makes that question answerable.
