How are the actually working to avoid ppl from abusing the reps of others?
I know with syscoin we have an offer type transaction and when an offer is paid we can query for feedback snd put it in blockchain.. That stops people from randomely targetting ppl.. But doesnt stop the abuse if someone really wants to they can pay for an offer and give a bad rating just cause but chances of that are low...

Wright,, proposed a similar idea, but his idea was kicked to the curb even though he was still one of Bitcoin's favorite sons at the time. Now, along comes a startup with a one-page site and they've already received $850K in funding, that with no visible way showing how they're going to profit off their venture.
