Re:Show HN: Bitrated – Bitcoin m-of-n arbitrated transactions on Tuesday December 03, 2013 @05:42PM (#6843725)
Firstly, great idea.

I'm assuming there will be some sort of rating system for arbitrators in the future. That list on /u could get unwieldly.

However, what's to stop an arbitrator from gaming this service and faking his reputation?

For example, he could send transactions between himself all day, using himself as the "arbitrator", and build his fake ratings that way.

I find once you get writer's block, it's too late. The key is to have an ongoing list of ideas/things to do, so when you have that free weekend, it's go time.

Not so subtle marketing?
