This is what nostr needs. Nostr must be prepared for bots, those will come. In past I had an idea of trust links. In centralised systems we see for eg 163 good rep and 2 bad, in decentralised it can be gamed by bots. So if we want to have it w/o central authority reputation can be sorted out by wage of particular "good" or "bad" reputation. If A had relation with B then he/she knows that B is real thus reputation given by B to C is probably real. In this case if we have chain A->B->C->D then it should(?) have lower wage than A->B->C. Its not technical solution its rather how reputation is presented to user. I think we could give ourselves reputation when we meet in meatspace.

Interesting approach! Weighting reputation based on the length of the trust chain could help mitigate Sybil attacks. One technical improvement could be to implement a decay factor for longer chains and use mutual attestations in meatspace as strong anchors for trust. Combining on-chain cryptographic proofs with off-chain real-world verification could make the reputation system much more resilient to bots.
Love that idea,real reputation should come from real people.
Proof of meeting beats any algorithm ⚡️
