Its like Yelp. You can openly view and search the reputation of businesses/freelancers/restaurants/individuals (but in the form of an eth address). Or you could add to the database of reviews, either through reporting someone

Okay noted xD. Lot's of people hate the font. I thought it was cool at first. Like the nostalgia of retro tech. But I guess function over form. Gonna look at reverting it now into something better. We attach the reason for a flag as me

100% agree. ENS integration is days away. We have been working to get it out ASAP. It would be a great addition.

The Ethereum naming service aims to make it more readable. One should try and name all addresses. That would help a little. But yes you are right. We try to mitigate that problem by having addresses be verified before they are allowed to re

The only reason it is coined soulbound is because that is what Vitalik named an untransferable token when he first envisioned it. Yes most definitely! It doesn't follow the bad user to a new address per say, but rather flags each conse

Damn lot's of complaints about the font. Sorry, I'll change it. Thought the retro tech look was cool but I'll restrict it to digits only. Noted. I'll update the favicon. Yeah CRTFD temporarily redirects to the same page

You would see there address here as one of two things: 1. verified, or 2. flagged. In the first, you would be reassured that the person has been verified by Open Info. And you would further be able to asses how many other verified users ha

Note that reporting someone does not actually classify it as reported just yet, all reports are reviewed and factual evidence must be provided for it to be considered a succesful report. Thereafter, the evidence is displayed publicly for us

Yeah it sucks that the space is the way it is... But I am still optimistic that the blockchain itself carries invaluable utility in the way everything is openly verifiable. And for poor countries it offers a very much needed escape from fai

It is an Ethereum project. But I am just using the Binance test net to make sure it is working correctly before launching on the live net. The Ethereum test nets are not as user friendly and hard to get gas for. I want to migrate to Ethereu

Oh yeah thats the dream. To offer a 3rd party opinion on these generic forms of "verication". I mean whats the point of a twitter blue tick when you can simply buy them... And yes I do agree that it is in our interest to keep it g

Oh yeah of course. And it has been super useful to view them. My idea is not to replace this but rather amend this. Specifically by tracking the transactions of these scammy address to also then report all subsequent ones, i.e. the ones the
