Design Principle

DP6 - Reputation mechanism

Provide a reputation mechanism that, after the fulfillment stage, allows serious rating of each identity with decentralized collection and transparent processing/distribution of rating data, so participants can trust the reputation data.

Designing trust-enabling blockchain systems for the inter-organizational exchange of capacity

The paper derives and validates six design principles for establishing inter-organizational trust in capacity-exchange platforms - signaling of tender information, signaling of identity, authority and fairness, incentive mechanisms, screening functionality and reputation mechanism - instantiates them in an artifact and tests their effect on perceived trust.
