DONSANE Trust Framework
Evidence you can inspect.
The foundation of the ecosystem is a clear record of what was claimed, what was checked, and what changed.
Contribution verification
01 · Self-claimed
A contributor describes their work and supplies a public evidence link. Skills entered on a profile remain self-claimed.
02 · Independent review
An authorized reviewer checks the scope, attribution, and evidence. A person cannot review their own work. Every decision needs a written reason.
03 · Verified record
The reviewed contribution appears as verified. Verification applies to that contribution only, not every claim on the profile.
04 · Revisions remain visible
A reviewer can revisit a decision. Earlier decisions are preserved; reputation reflects the latest recorded status.
Research, not a safety score
Each research indicator contains an observation, source, date, researcher, and verification status. Reports preserve published historical snapshots. Missing or unverified information must remain explicit.
A research report is not a professional smart-contract audit, investment recommendation, or guarantee. An audit reference must identify its scope and source; its existence is not proof that a project is risk-free.
Reputation without shortcuts
No purchased reputation. No points for followers. No automatic verification for submitting a form. V1 shows verified contributions by category and project, not an arbitrary weighted score.
Submission limits, duplicate-evidence checks, independent review, moderation, and an audit trail discourage abuse. These controls do not prove one account equals one person; human reviewers must assess collusion and misleading evidence.
Know what each label means
Supplied by a user; not independently confirmed.
A contribution has a recorded independent review.
An editor checked the referenced source; this is not an audit.
Client-confirmed job completion and client ratings are separate from independently verified contributions. Formal course credentials and on-chain credentials are not issued.
