Title: BitcoinerTag
Post by: ECore on December 09, 2012, 07:00:35 PM
Has anyone ever came up with the idea of a BitcoinerTag?

There could be some way of developing an anonymous system to where a BitcoinerTag is linked to a person that one could take to different trading sites to establish reputation.

...just a thought.

The problem isn't a lack of labels.  The problem is establishing a reputation system which has any kind of credibility/validity.

Perhaps this is something the bitcoin foundation could do, set up a central repository of traders with ratings etc.

lol, Doesnt need to be managed by them, more a central repository which you can aggregate all your stats in a single place.  So such a system might work by having API into OTC WoT, forum recommendations, details of exchange trades.  Obviously this means there is a lot of information stored about you and it takes away somewhat from the anonymity of Bitcoins but hey at least it would be easy for traders to determine whether they want to trade.
