At sign-in, and again at submission
The account is yours, and says so
You sign in through ๐ itself. The claim binds to the handle that login proves you control, and a submitted post is refused unless the tweet was published by that exact handle. We never ask for your password, and there is no way to type in a handle you do not own.
kills
Claiming on someone else's account, or pointing a claim at a stranger's post and collecting on their reach.
For creators
Your handle is yours. Nobody can enter a bounty on the back of your posts, and nobody is competing with you using an account they borrowed for the afternoon.
For brands
Every paid post came from an account whose owner authenticated with ๐. No anonymous handles, no unverifiable middlemen on your campaign.
