Simple MVP: downvoting costs 5x the upvoting.
Slightly more difficult: each post costs a "deposit" of 10,000 sats which will be refunded if you have a non-negative score within 24 hours. If you have a negative score, you give up your deposit and it goes to the distribution pool for the next day.

Summary of What You’re building:
A FOSS Bitcoin Core based passive P2P networking tool called peer-observer. It hooks into tracepoint's in Bitcoin Core to extract, e.g., P2P messages sent and received, connections opened, closed, evicted, … The nodes are essentially well-behaving honey-pots with a lot of monitoring.
This is all already implemented and running. However, don't have a public demo of it at the moment. Happy to share something with interested people. I currently have 10 nodes running, dispersed around the globe.
What Kind of Help Are You Looking For?
Looking for someone interested in Bitcoin P2P network level attacks that wants to build some sort of (real-time) anomaly detection with the data the tool is producing. For example, detection of inbound connection flooder's like LinkingLion: An entity linking Bitcoin transactions to IPs?.
The project is mainly written in Rust, but I've taken care that Python scripts should work too. The infrastructure is Nix+NixOS.
Purpose
For fun and to make the Bitcoin network more secure. Not for profit. I have a grant to work on this (and more). I can't pay you for the work, though you might find someone else willing to give you a grant or similar for the work (I can help, but no promises!).
