2 of two scorched earth |
A decentralized system for peer-to-peer content material suggestion using a “Two Of Two Scorched Earth” reward/punishment scheme proposed by Vitalik Buterin to incentivize high quality content material sharing. The objective of the venture is to ship a proof-of-concept implementation on mainnet to exhibit the usefulness of this scheme for a wide range of purposes. |
