Design principle DP1: Decentralized, party-independent control of the escrow/payment

The contract and its escrow/payment mechanism should be governed in a decentralized manner so that it is controlled by neither the newsvendor nor the expert; on a blockchain, escrow accounts are collectively controlled by a set of independent computational devices, which enhances trust between the parties.

Source paper

This design principle is proposed by Aligning the interests of newsvendors and forecasters through blockchain-based smart contracts and proper scoring rules (Arthur Carvalho, Majid Karimi, 2021).

Aligning the interests of newsvendors and forecasters through blockchain-based smart contracts and proper scoring rules

The paper proposes a proper scoring rule, tailored to the newsvendor's decision problem, that rewards a forecasting expert for higher effort, and shows that coding the rule as a blockchain-based smart contract lets the newsvendor signal trustworthiness while inducing the expert to exert more effort.
