Haven't seen a NIP for this yet, but I'd love to see some proposal for reputation/web of trust. This could be very useful for and sort of peer-to-peer trading or interaction, especially if we can get different algorithms for figuring out how much to trust someone. Might need a different way to relate than follow, though.

Here's an off-the-cuff idea. Before a peer-to-peer trade both Alice and Bob send a signed message to each other. Alice signing "I have initiated a trade X for Y with Bob". Then after the trade, Bob countersigns the message with "I successfully completed this trade with Alice" or "Alice didn't live up to her end of the bargain." These can be tallied up based on how close they are to you on the network for a score.

You know that satoshi put this, or something very similar, in bitcoin core?

The Bisq crew does something similar to this (but a bit more in depth) to help making sure trades go through safely and to establish reputation.
