This introduces interesting attack vectors that will need to be mitigated.

E.g. When a person gets hacked, then that could introduce many "scam" apps to people that followed the person.

“trust” is delegated from the AppStore bureaucrats who let scam bitcoin wallets in anyway, to your WOT.

Would you expect all of your WOT to get hacked at the same time nostr:npub1m6azw8j5wanm6mvwa367anjkzhdnz7srkpl5tyf5kql8ydsq2e2sa7h78d ?

I'm assuming that not all people in your web of trust need to verify the app. So there will be some threshold. E.g. "at least 3 people in your WOT with score over 5 verified app ABC". And then yeah, 2 people could be hacked, especially over longer term. There are definitely ways to mitigate these issues...
