Reputation-based systems

Reputation-based systems evaluate the trustworthiness of individuals or entities based on their previous behavior or feedback from others. They collect and analyze ratings, reviews, or performance data to create a reputation score, which influences future interactions or opportunities. Common in online platforms like marketplaces or social networks, these systems help users make informed decisions by highlighting reliable individuals and encouraging honest, quality participation. Overall, they foster trust and accountability within communities by providing a transparent measure of credibility.
