Example of fully formed Accreditation
The example below shows a Verifiable Accreditation that is issued by an rTAO to a TAO, specifying a schema under which the recipient is able to use for issuing their own accreditations.
For all Verifiable Accreditations, the accreditations are stored as DID-Linked Resources (DLRs), linked to the DID of the Accreditor. This means that the Accreditations are publically available, fully DID resolvable and are signed by the authentication keys within the DID Document of the Accreditor.
