Phase VIII: QQ Learn, Credentials, and “Proof-of-Skill” Reputation
Blunt reality check: a “certificate” is worthless unless someone credible accepts it as a signal. So QQ Learn must ship as Proof-of-Skill (verifiable work + audits + on-chain attestations), not a PDF badge.
QQ Learn (Deep Curriculum + Practical Labs)
- Learning tracks (modular, stackable):
- DeFi Risk & Market Structure (liquidity, reflexivity, liquidation cascades)
- Tokenomics & Incentive Design (emissions, sinks, governance capture)
- On-chain Forensics & Wallet Intelligence (clusters, labeling, entity mapping)
- Strategy Engineering (backtesting, regime detection, deployment hygiene)
- Data Literacy for Crypto (Dune/Flipside, data quality, bias, survivorship)
- Hands-on labs (graded):
- “Find alpha” challenges: build a thesis → define metrics → test → report
- “Red team” challenges: break a strategy with stress scenarios
- “Due diligence” drills: score a project and defend the score with evidence
- QQ Learn Sandbox:
- Paper trading environment tied to QQ Scores + guardrails
- Synthetic scenarios generator (liquidity shock / oracle failure / bridge halt)
- Post-mortem templates auto-filled from user actions
QQ Certificate = Verifiable Credential (Not a Badge)
- Credential design:
- Tiered certifications (Foundations → Analyst → Strategist → Risk Engineer)
- Each tier requires portfolio artifacts (reports, notebooks, dashboards)
- Verifiability & portability:
- On-chain attestation (Soulbound-style or non-transferable credential)
- Off-chain mirror (W3C Verifiable Credentials) for HR/enterprise checks
- Public “skills graph” profile (what you can do, not what you watched)
- Anti-gaming:
- Proctored capstone review (human + automated consistency checks)
- Plagiarism / template-detection on reports
- Evidence requirement: sources, tx links, reproducible queries
Reputation Layer (“Proof-of-Work” in the Decentralized Money Era)
- Reputation scoring (separate from QQ project scores):
- Accuracy over time (predictions vs outcomes)
- Risk discipline (max drawdown, rule adherence)
- Research quality (citations, reproducibility, falsifiability)
- Bounties & quests:
- Protocols sponsor research bounties (paid for audits/dashboards/analysis)
- Users earn reputation + rewards for high-signal contributions
- Mentor/Reviewer network:
- Trusted reviewers gain status; reviewers stake reputation (slashable)
“Strategy Marketplace” (Only if you can enforce safety)
-
Publish/subscribe strategy templates (signals, not custody)
-
Standardized “strategy card”:
- assumptions, edge source, risk limits, failure modes, regime sensitivity
-
Performance reporting:
- Verified track records (paper + optional on-chain execution attestations)
-
Hard guardrails:
- Max leverage constraints, liquidation-risk warnings, compliance gating
