* Verified Badge - Badges that have an assertion URL. OBI currently supports verification of badges through Hosted Assertions. i.e. When Issuer pushes badge to the OBI, metadata is pushed to a unique and persistent url aka assertion url. Issuer maintains Badge Assertion and Displayers can ping the assertion URL to confirm verification.
