Identity, platform, audience, traffic, monetization, restrictions, disclosures — what each section of a listing's Passport actually tells you.
The Node Passport is the structured dossier behind every listing. It's built from a few sections, and not every section applies to every Node.
Identity and Platform are the only sections required on every listing — what the asset is, who's selling it, how ownership actually transfers. Audience, Traffic, and Monetization are optional enrichment: a seller can fill in as much or as little as they genuinely have. A listing with no Traffic section isn't hiding something — it may just mean the seller's asset (a booked influencer placement, for instance) doesn't have a traffic profile to report.
Attributes are type-specific — an ad account's Passport asks about spend history and standing; a website's asks about sessions and referring domains; a creative pack's asks about usage rights. Restrictions and Disclosures are where a seller flags anything a buyer should know upfront, from billing quirks to thin sponsorship history.
Every field a seller fills in is self-reported until independently verified — that's exactly what the Verification ladder and Node Score ceiling (see 'Node Score Explained') exist to keep honest.
