The Vision

Raphael founded Blockcred.sui after experiencing firsthand the challenges of credential verification across borders. Having worked internationally, he encountered the friction, delays, and costs associated with proving his qualifications to employers and institutions in different countries.

"In today's global economy, your credentials should be as portable and verifiable as your digital identity," says Raphael. "Blockchain technology offers a unique opportunity to create a system where trust is built into the infrastructure, eliminating unnecessary intermediaries and empowering individuals to truly own their professional identities."

Professional Background

Before founding Blockcred.sui, Raphael worked as a senior blockchain developer at several leading Web3 companies, where he contributed to projects on Ethereum, Solana, and eventually Sui blockchain. His technical expertise spans smart contract development, decentralized identity systems, and cryptographic security.

Raphael holds a Master's degree in Computer Science with a specialization in Distributed Systems and has published research on the applications of blockchain technology in identity management.

Why Sui Blockchain?

After exploring various blockchain platforms, Raphael chose to build Blockcred.sui on Sui blockchain due to its unique technical advantages for credential management:

  • Horizontal scalability that can support millions of credential transactions
  • Object-centric data model that aligns perfectly with credential management
  • Low transaction costs that make frequent credential updates economically viable
  • Move programming language that provides strong security guarantees for sensitive credential data

"Sui represents the next generation of blockchain technology," explains Raphael. "Its architecture solves many of the limitations that prevented earlier blockchains from scaling to support global credential systems."

Beyond Technology

While Raphael is passionate about the technical aspects of blockchain, he emphasizes that Blockcred.sui's mission extends beyond technology. "This is about human potential," he says. "When we remove barriers to credential verification, we unlock opportunities for people regardless of where they were born or where they live."

Outside of his work at Blockcred.sui, Raphael is an active contributor to open-source blockchain projects and regularly speaks at industry conferences on topics related to decentralized identity and credential management.

Looking Forward

Under Raphael's leadership, Blockcred.sui is working toward a future where digital credentials are universally verifiable, fully owned by individuals, and seamlessly integrated into the global digital economy.

"We're just at the beginning of this journey," says Raphael. "As blockchain technology continues to mature and gain adoption, we'll see a fundamental shift in how trust is established online. Blockcred.sui is positioned to be at the forefront of that transformation."
