Ethereum

There has been a lot of spam on XMTP these past few days, so wouldn’t it be cool to have:

staked and non-staked addresses, where users can choose in the app layer to only receive messages from staked addresses. 

If the adress receives enough complaints (governed by smart contract) the address is slashed.

Interesting. Haven’t read this in detail, but looks like a different approach that could also be useful.

following our thread the other day, while again not a direct solution, this also seems like it could be a novel workaround, @notdevin.eth @solana1

Yes it wouldn’t be a panacea. The more sophisticated scams with better targeting are probably harder to prevent in general.

this would help prevent general spam but for effective high EV scams this wouldn’t deter bad actors unless the stake was real high, and if the stake was real high would crowd out normal users.

This is a great idea, pay-to-message has been tried a couple times but never got traction. Using a stake instead of payment might solve those issues.
