REP Score

Reputation as Proof of Work

REP Score is Treasurenet’s on-chain reputation system. It provides verifiable proof of real-world productivity—earned through actual production, not speculative capital.

REP is non-transferable. Unlike tokens, it can’t be bought, sold, or delegated. It reflects what you’ve done, not what you hold.

Minted when a Producer’s output is validated via the TN Gateway and asset-specific modules, REP Score serves as:

  • A decentralized credit score for borrowing TCash
  • A gateway to Bonus Stake and validator reward pools
  • A persistent track record of real-world contribution
  • A potential credential for governance and protocol-level access

How REP is Earned

The process:

  1. A Producer submits output via the TN Gateway
  2. The data is validated by asset-specific modules and oracles
  3. If approved, REP Score is minted to the Producer’s wallet
  4. That REP becomes a public, auditable signal of productivity

Each REP Score is:

  • Tied to a specific time period
  • Indexed by asset class (e.g. oil, gas, compute)
  • Immutable and traceable on-chain (but not personally identifiable)

What REP Unlocks

Use CaseDescription
Minting $UNITDetermines how much $UNIT a Producer can generate
Bidding Bonus StakeREP can be burned to qualify for higher validator rewards
Credit Access via $TCashHigher REP increases borrowing capacity
Governance ParticipationREP May be used in future DAO votes or through whitelisting
On-Chain IdentityREP builds a track record of productivity over time

Asset-Class Specific Indexing

Each REP score is tagged by what was produced.

This enables:

  • Better credit risk profiling (e.g., oil vs. data vs. energy)
  • More precise reward models
  • Asset-specific governance or incentive design

For example:

  • REP from solar energy may qualify you for climate-linked programs
  • REP from BTC mining may be used for protocol-level coordination in compute-heavy networks.

REP is designed to bridge on-chain proof and off-chain enforceability. The Treasurenet DAO is exploring:

  • Legal frameworks to link REP to default recovery
  • Underwriting standards that rely on REP history
  • Use of REP in DAO grants or treasury-based funding rounds

Design Principles

PrincipleImplementation
Non-fungibleCannot be sold, traded, or reassigned
Immutable trailTied to verified production logs
Anti-gamingOnly sustained, verified output qualifies
Privacy-preservingNo wallet is linked to identify unless voluntarily disclosed
Persistent identityREP builds over time to encourage long-term alignment
