Re: towards a theory of reputation
This discussion puzzles me. I thought we were bombarded with
reputational goods all the time: brand names, stocks (what is a purchase
in the 2ndary market but a purchase of reputation most of the time?),
degrees from famous universities. Anonymity compliates matters only if
no systems of unique ID is used. Throw in digital signatures and we are
back at brand names, aren't we?
