A signed credential
for the CTO.
Issued only after three sitting CTOs put their Nº behind yours. Permanent, non-transferable, yours for the long form of your career. One sign-in unlocks every service in the registry.
Every credential issued.
How a credential is earned.
Find three.
Identify three sitting CTOs willing to put their Nº behind yours. Vouches are public, attached to the voucher's number, and retractable until you claim.
Collect on chain.
Each voucher calls vouch(you) from their wallet. The contract counts distinct vouchers, not raw transactions, so spam does not move the gate.
Claim your Nº.
The next sequential Nº is yours. Use it to sign into every service in the register, and to stamp your work as cryptographically attributable.
What you actually own.
Your Nº lives on a public chain, not in our database. The signing service is a public contract whose address won't change. If we shut down tomorrow, every credential and every signature remains verifiable, by anyone, forever. We commit to non-revocation, to transferring administrative power to a multisig of holders as the founding cohort closes, and to publishing every line of the protocol you'd need to verify a CTO without us.
On the credential
Output is becoming cheap. Accountability is staying scarce. A Quire Nº is the human signal in the loop: issued by peers, held for life, verifiable forever. The register exists because the gate is real.
