I think it’s going to be a challenge. I am actually fairly bullish on the network filtering side as part of the solution but unfortunately can’t use it for our aggregator. There are ways to circumvent it but it is easier to fingerprint connections than you might think, even with multiple IPs/ASNs.

I think relays will use social graphs based tools a lot but I’m not sure how to deal with new users. They will end up being very hard to discover if we apply strict rate limits/reduce their visibility until they gain followers/engagement.

We could encourage them to pay to “skip the early reputation line” but I don’t think PoW will prevent spammers. There needs to be a way to onboard without cost though. Perhaps some type of vouching from existing “reputable” users. Still can be gamed though. Lots to consider.
