FairScale

Going to start posting some weekly updates about @fairscalexyz from a founder pov: Last week, we had 14 new businesses in total apply for verification on FairScale for business, which doesn’t seem much, but they were some of my favourites in the space: @loyal_hq, @factmachine, @kurate_finance - which really goes to show that people do care about their own credibility, and a way to showcase trust. What I am working through though, is a way to incentivise users and the wider public, to actually write reviews, without it being gamed. I have a few ideas, and given the whole mechanic around FairScale is that it’s about the credibility network, not just one static point in time, the opportunity is there. Ive been spending a lot of time thinking about how agent credibility ties back to the human that deploys it, as well as how we think similarly to two of my other favourite projects right now, both with the same names! In @motionmkts and @motiongame_ from a human / trader / social point of view. I’ve actually begun to realise, trust is pretty simple. It’s similar to a market, it’s about what people think about you, and who those people are. Same thesis as, something is only worth what someone is willing to pay for it. There’s an idea there. I’ve been able to make our social model at least, significantly more efficient, with a hell of a lot more efficacy just by thinking this way. Finally, we got a sponsored account from @triton_one thanks to @SuperteamUK and the legend in @SteveCleanBrook. Expect to see our models get smarter, faster. I’ve already mapped out streaming, and taken history for our onchain reputation models, significantly further. Meaning what you do, becomes who you are. Without a name.

Had a lot of fun building what I’d like to call the TrustPilot of @solana, but with the credibility of the writer of reviews in mind. A simple world in which a credible person’s word, counts. Any business will soon be able to get one of these widgets, as a signal of trust, written onchain.
