I've been thinking about user reputation and privileges for a while. And on Air Asia's plane today, I thought what if you could use some kind of Signature Composition scheme?
I got to this idea with the following question:
Could someone implement incremental signing for more privileges?
Where with more signing would mean more legit reputation, and power to affect/mutate an ecosystem.
For instance, if user's public address is used as signing and auth, you would make them sign along their entire journey.
A way to visualize user growth, would be as starting out as a meaningless dot then growing more and more onion rings of power (privileges).
Now a quick way to get the user's level would to query the latest reputation function execution:
t( h( g( f(x)))) == x
Where x here is the user's address
Is this a possibility or is it full of shit? Let me know what you think :)
