This is what we are aiming for in building TruStory (https://beta.trustory.io https://beta.trustory.io).
The protocol is built as a distributed proof-of-stake network, where people can earn a crypto token by contributing good content, or by running nodes of the blockchain. Users and node operators can take ownership in, and govern the network based on how much of the crypto token they own (or have earned).
I recently wrote about the architecture at https://blog.cosmos.network/building-a-decentralized-app-with-cosmos-sdk-3c535cdc6a6a https://blog.cosmos.network/building-a-decentralized-app-wit....

- shanev 7y agoWe have a couple of mechanisms in place for this. Users who have earned a certain amount of the token by being good citizens of the network will have to vote in new users. These users also moderate content, where offenders get some of their token taken away. Furthermore, network operators (validators) can vote to remove malicious content and users. And as with most crypto networks, a small fee (gas) is charged for usage.
