Soulbound Token utility refers to the functional applications and benefits derived from non-transferable digital tokens that are permanently linked to a specific blockchain address or identity. Unlike standard NFTs, soulbound tokens cannot be sold or transferred, making them suitable for representing verifiable credentials, reputation, or achievements. Their utility stems from establishing a persistent, non-financialized digital identity and record of participation within decentralized communities. They serve as immutable proofs of belonging or accomplishment.
