And all of this to answer @johannab question.

For communities, this becomes even more powerful.

A community can run its own Fediprofile hub.

Profiles can include:

• social links
• badges
• gamification
• streaks
• recognitions

All tied to the community.

Example: a hiking community.

Imagine a fediprofile hub for mountain hikers where members can:

• show their trail badges
• track hiking streaks
• share gear links
• display summit achievements

Combine that with a badge issuer and maybe a #Mastodon and/or #PixelFed server for the community.

Now you have a decentralized ecosystem.

I’m also exploring ideas like:

• leaderboards
• activity points
• community challenges

Possibly as a component integrated with BadgeFed + Fediprofile, or maybe as a separate project.

Still experimenting.

In short:

BadgeFed issues decentralized recognitions.
Fediprofile helps people collect and display them.

Both use #ActivityPub as the backbone.

(You can create your own badge wallet. You can create your own badge issuer. Just use activitypub and openbadges and they should connect).

Badges become portable, social, and decentralized.

And communities can build on top of that.

P.S. I decided to NEVER add a wallet into BadgeFed, keeping it simple and extensible by default. So Fediprofile is the default wallet. But anyone can build and use their own. No new specs, no new protocols.
