# SAT Trust Signal

> Bond uses Satcoin (SAT) held to show commitment for supported Fased Network roles.

**Bond is the Satcoin commitment layer around stronger network roles.**

Mining brings Satcoin into the operator loop. Bond lets an operator hold SAT to
show commitment for supported Fased Network roles where those roles are
published.

Bond is a network feature that matures through published roles. The starting
point is Satcoin mining, public history, wallet separation, and clear public
status.

Bonded SAT is SAT held to show commitment. Always use the official Satcoin and
Fased Network docs for the current supported bond path.

## Why Satcoin is the bond asset

Satcoin already belongs to the mining layer. Using SAT for bond keeps mining,
public history, and network trust in the same loop.

## What to verify

Before bonding SAT, check the official Satcoin status page for:

* current mint and program addresses
* supported bond path
* official launch verification
* wallet display and explorer references
* current Fased Network support
