Reputation weighting is a mechanism used in decentralized systems to assign influence or authority based on a participant’s historical behavior and contributions. Users with a positive reputation, often accrued through consistent, honest participation, receive greater voting power or higher priority in network operations. This system aims to promote beneficial conduct and deter malicious activity. It helps to secure and govern decentralized networks.

Debates often address the fairness and resistance to manipulation of different reputation systems. News reports may discuss proposals for new weighting algorithms or controversies surrounding reputation-based decision-making.
