I really welcome this, although i do have one concern:
I introduced a Romanian friend to NXT who purchased (some) of my own stake (transferred to his own wallet) who later participated into NEM after i had got on board (both of our stakes have been authenticated)
On the surface, this would look like a sockpuppet account but it's really quite the contrary in reality; he's a real individual, of which i know if needed, could vouch for me here, or, if at UP's request, in other ways if necessary.
The concern i have is how do we ensure in circumstances like above, arn't wrongly accused?
First of all only people with a lot of stakes are being targeted here. We're talking > 10 ro so.
Secondly timing of posts and transactions, wording of posts, everything is taken into account when identifying sockpuppets. I don't think we're goign to hit too many false positives.
Also it's a public auditing. Anyone that feels misstreated can come forward and say so.
