TrustLayer Learn

Deep, source-of-truth guides on Web3 reputation, sybil defense, and the $TRUST economy — written for humans and AI search engines alike.

Basics

How Vouching Works (Deep Dive)
Vouching is a mutually signed cryptographic proof between two wallets. Learn the EIP-191 payload, on-chain settlement, and revocation flow.

Reputation

What Is Web3 Reputation?
Web3 reputation is a wallet-bound, portable trust score built from on-chain proofs and peer vouches. Full guide with examples, protocols, and use cases.
What Is a Trust Score?
A Trust Score is a 0–1000 number that quantifies how trusted and verifiably human a wallet is. Learn the formula, caps, and how to raise yours.

Sybil Defense

Proof of Personhood, Explained
Proof of personhood is a cryptographic guarantee that a wallet belongs to one unique human. Compare Worldcoin, BrightID, Gitcoin Passport, and TrustLayer.
Sybil Resistance in Web3
Sybil resistance prevents one attacker from creating thousands of fake wallets. Learn the strategies airdrops, DAOs, and TrustLayer use.
How to Defend an Airdrop from Farmers
Airdrops lose 30–70% of value to farmers. Here is the two-line TrustLayer integration that eliminates the vast majority of sybil claims.

$TRUST Token

$TRUST Token Utility & Value Accrual
How $TRUST accrues value: burn-on-use, 40% revenue buyback, staking gates, exit tax on early sellers, and long-term supply mechanics.
$TRUST Tokenomics Deep Dive
Full 1B $TRUST allocation: 20% community, 23% team and advisors, 20% liquidity, 12% presale, 10% airdrop, 8% treasury, and 7% ecosystem grants.
How $TRUST Prevents Price Manipulation
Exit tax, whale watchlist, LP lock, buyback engine, and staking gates — the full set of defences protecting $TRUST from dumps and manipulation.
