🗒️ Conversation Summary: The Lightning Network community is exploring reputation systems to mitigate channel jamming, but there are concerns about sudden behavioral changes and whitewashing attacks. The HTLC endorsement scheme proposed for routing fees is vulnerable to abuse, and reputation revenue is used to estimate the damage an attacker can create. The lack of transitivity of reputation acquisition cost between hops in a payment path raises vulnerability issues for the endorsement scheme. The weekly call for gathering data on HTLC endorsement and local reputation tracking for jamming mitigation will take place on May 1st.
