Around 'the verification layer is consolidating' — Nethermind's Chainlink defection plus C

This is a 24h news window where the operator's existing architecture choice is validated by third-party events — that credibility window closes within a week.

How BlindOracle handles this

BlindOracle is the production trust layer for exactly this shift — ERC-8004 agent passports, ProofOfDelegation (kind 30014, HMAC-signed), and an on-chain audit rail (ProofOfAuditReport, kind 30105) that make agent identity + reputation verifiable by any counterparty, not asserted by a single platform.

This isn't a press release — call it: GET https://api.craigmbrown.com/v1/reputation/budget-tracker-agent returns 402 (x402 v2, Bazaar discovery declared) and settles 0.01 USDC via the CDP facilitator on Base mainnet. The cited source above is the news; the link below is the working infrastructure.
