is there a service that issues onchain credentials for things like college degress?

Orange

not a public service but along similar lines I helped build a service that verifies people's YC "credentials" and issues an NFT for /orange-dao members

there's an oracle for verification and it works permissionlessly via founders verifying themselves through a workflow only YC alumni have access to

the idea was to let any on-chain service can offer perks/access/etc. to verified YC peeps. would love to see more of this for colleges too.

my thought was the company independently verifies the credential so that it’s not blocked on colleges getting onboard

hard to get people to do it but if there was a legit use case like an anon.world anonymity set possible you could get a 1k ivy leaguers or some other group to do it

At least 10-15 companies try it in every bull market.

The biggest problem is that colleges don't have a reason to change their current process. 

If anything, they make money from printing paper degrees. So, they continue doing it.

In order for adoption, 

1. It has to be demanded from the employers. 

2. Colleges have to figure out a new revenue model from onchain degrees.
