Nostr Web of Trust. Look, we know eachother from Bitcoin events, so we are friends on Nostr. It is cryptographically signed and so are qll our other follows and follows back.

A bot, trying to mimick me will not have the same level of follow backs even if he tries to follow everyone I follow.

So a Nostr app can just rank order by the level of follow reciprocation and I will always be on top.

No need to scan eye balls, have government digital IDs, or have a video history.

FOAF - Friend of a Friend referring "system" sounds like a good idea nostr:nprofile1qqsrc2zasv9lgvcnttnpcusmw5xwzxh9ktscwufd0gt347numfjfu5qpz3mhxue69uhhyetvv9ujuerpd46hxtnfduq3vamnwvaz7tmjv4kxz7fwdehhxarj9e3xzmnyqyxhwumn8ghj7mn0wvhxcmmvk5cd87

I believe FOAF has been a term in semantic web for a long time. Not having seen much uptake, it (the idea, not the defined ontology) can get a new life on Nostr.

And I wouldn't be surprised if existing social Nostr apps don't already work using graphs where an unknown friend of a friend is more likely to get a boost than a bot.

I'm not up2date on Nostr tech, but if it's not already been worked on, it will happen, I'm sure.
