Autonomous decentralized validation of domain-specific reputation is a core decentalized infrastructure necessity.
The main design goals for measuring domain-specific reputation in autonomous decentralized and anonymous systems are to:
- evaluate domain specific reputation across a wide variety of expertises
- insure security, including resistance to Sybil attacks, tyranny of the majority, and 51% attacks
- provide a minimal, robust core architecture which supports modular constructions for a wide range of use cases
The key features are:
- a positive feedback loop which promotes productive cooperation between public and expert users
- maximal freedom for experts in the creation of reputation verification protocols
- complete autonomy—the economic structure is closed to off-domain influence; all power and fees are shared entirely by expert users, weighted by reputation
- meritocracy—the platform supports anonymity, rewarding ability and productive contributions over personal identity
The creation of a transparent, fair, and predictable system that facilitates certainty of outcomes, security, and efficiency benefits society with the advancement of justice and prevention of corruption on a global scale.
