First attested case · /me

John Haven Bradley.

The first verified person on the SameAsYou substrate. This page is not about the protocol. It is the protocol, applied to one life.

Page is a demonstration. Hashes shown are v1 placeholders pending the identity-layer wiring described on the book page.

Identity

The minimum a counterparty needs to begin a verification: a name, a public key, a hash of the operating mandate the named person signed tonight. Nothing else is required to run an AIAP handshake against this principal.

The verified-facts ledger

A small set of bullet-form facts about the named principal, each signed with a hash. This is the protocol’s public face for a person: facts the world can verify, attached to a key the principal controls. Hashes below are v1 placeholders demonstrating the format; production hashes are computed by the identity layer when it ships.

Editorial note

A first-person paragraph from the named principal about why he is placing his own life on the chain — including the parts a normal professional bio would omit. The protocol does not require this. The point of going first does.

This section is reserved for a first-person paragraph by John Haven Bradley. It is intentionally left empty until he writes it.
