The Reputation Interchange

Cultural computation



The Reputation Interchange is at the heart of Neighbourhoods, mediating between different articulations of behavior, credibility, and style.

Think of it as a ‘cultural computer’ that ties data to their contexts of origin, making them portable to other spaces - without loss of meaning.

Individuals can move about the distributed web more freely and groups scale more consciously, thanks to better sensemaking about newcomers and other neighbourhoods.

Key benefits



Explicit culture: Communities co-create culture and reputation protocols locally to guide their interactions.

Cross-membrane coherence: ‘Reputation Data Types’ enable sensemaking of data shared across contexts.

Efficient, contextual computations: Reputation scores are computed locally and shared within a Neighbourhood, driving efficiency and p2p verification in distributed environments.
