Badges are fun! I look forward to checking this out someday.

I'll message you when the badge implementation is 100%. Still have a few bugs to work out. I'm a huge fan of this for edtech because I think the decentralization of transcripts when it comes to e-learning is something that's missing at the foundational level.
For example, if a 4th year engineering student drops out, it's as if they've literally done nothing at all and I think the goal of technology is to approximate reality.
Other than that I like badges a lot for engagement like you illustrated - the idea of collecting rare badges like today's $100K day or attending open-source events like nostriga is awesome and has positive consequences for social communication.
