Work X – Tokenizing Your Skills

Work X is using Self-Sovereign Identity and personal NFT’s that you can earn and use on the Internet of Jobs to prove you are the best candidate for the job! Because you are the sole owner of this data, you control with whom you share it.

Tokenizing your skills & achievements

Work X identifies work credentials such as diplomas, online certificates, references, peer reviews, or assessment results as personal achievements. These personal achievements are linked to your digital identity using Self-Sovereign Identity, which functions as a token representing yourself; your anchor in cyberspace.

Instead of losing the information related to your performance after employment, the data is stored safely in your personal wallet so it can be used to match with a new employer. This is both relevant for full-time employees who tend to give away all their data to an employer, as freelancers that only generate reviews and star ratings on gig platforms such as Amazon Mechanical Turk or UpWork.

The personal NFT’s that are generated on Work X can be ‘booked’ instead of bought by employers who need a particular skill(set) for a job. People can showcase important aspects of themselves in many situations and offer their personal NFT’s for a wide variety of jobs on the Work X platform. Offer your services to code a smart contract, write an article or design a piece of art with a single click! You decide which aspects specific target audiences get to see and make your experience matter by increasing its relevance. The Work X platform facilitates everything that is needed to enable collaboration (e.g., payrolling, reviews, matching, curation & communication).

To make sure that the personal NFT’s can be used everywhere, users are not tied to the Work X platform to prove the authenticity of their skills. Work X will function as an open platform where people can use their NFT’s to directly match with jobs.

“Daniel de Witte, CTO & Co-founder of Work X, describes that by introducing a generic standard, other projects can also leverage this technology to free their users from often contained silos. Because Work X will also offer immersive collaboration within metaverse playgrounds, this generic standard enables true metaverse travel, not only with tradable NFT’s but also with something much more personal; your identity. Being able to showcase and switch between different sets of applicable achievements, skills, or experience, for different situations, people can quickly adjust themselves to whatever metaverse-world they want to travel.”

Work X has recently successfully raised $1.8M and is about to launch the next round of its private sale.
