Hey Roman, I’ve gone through the article & fixed up a number of
grammatical errors - you should have a PR for it.
Questions:
-
entities such as doorways <- do you have a citation for this?
-
Proof of identity by linking the social accounts, which were used
in hack.ether.camp season 2, also can be useful if it's impact
is not too big. <- do you talk about how you weight different types
of accounts? E.g. Linkedin is more trustworthy then Twitter -
First upvoter receives maximal reward, reward will decrease for every
subsequent upvoter <-surely this means there’ll be a rush to get the
first upvote in all new content, and subsequently it will die out,
causing the number of upvotes to be a diminishing measure of actually
how good the content is - e.g. weighting of 15 versus 10 is actually
more like 50 versus 10 in a traditional karma system such as Stack Overflow or Reddit -
Having simple picture of the final proposed solution would be useful
-
An overview at the start of the proposed solution would be useful
-
Could you reference then Stack Overflow & Reddit repuations systems
versus what’s being proposed? As they’re very well established
[ @iurimatias ]
seems to the one in which it's attempted that, the amount of work
X requried to get the reputation score Y for Z number of accounts
would be the equivalent or even more than doing the same or less
work X to get the same reputation score Y with just 1 account
my concern is that, this systems are always vulnerable to
'wolves in sheeps clothing' sybil attacks
i.e malicious users that do everything right in the beginning
who then increase the reputation of their own sybil accounts
until the time is right to do the attack or manipulation
systems with tokens can discourage that bkoz there would some cost involved
I'm also concerned about the rewarding users for upvoting, looks like a way to game the system
perhaps a good alternative would be to rewards the first users who upvote something that later becomes popular
