Abstract

The greatest feature of the blockchain is the decentralization. This paper refers to the PGP web of trust and theoretical concepts of six degrees of separation to establish a set of reputation-based trust evaluation mechanism for decentralized environments. It is expected that achievements of the paper can facilitate people’s judgment regarding the reliability of strangers and reduce the risks of being deceived.
