I could accept x bytes, so someone is granting me IOUs for that. I throw all things on the trash, and meanwhile (before someone mark me as unreliable, which needs some time) I could spend all IOUs I earned before, which will be valid (regardless my unreliability) in the future for the other peers. A cycle could be closed, if time to find me is too high (or time to close a cycle too low). So, someone other will pay my lies. It isn't fair to my eyes... and if # of liers grow up, they could (legally) fill honest peers without much damage (and could be worse by whitewashing). _______________________________________________ p2p-hackers mailing list [email protected] http://lists.zooko.com/mailman/listinfo/p2p-hackers
