It does have a nice positive ring to it for certain scenarios. However, it's true that it doesn't work for many cases, such as place of birth, age, citizenship, address, email, and so on (though I suppose you could argue that some of those may be "earned" in some sense!). I think "holder" is working for that actor for most people in the more generic case. But others can correct me if they feel differently. > We use “consumer” for the one who uses an earner’s claim so plus one > there.

I think we'll be able to say a credential is a set of verifiable claims. It's the container for claims. -- Dave Longley CTO Digital Bazaar, Inc. http://digitalbazaar.com
