Seeking Feedback: Transparent Web3 Scam Prevention Idea!

Hello r/ethereum,

Yesterday I asked you ideas about a project against scammers on this post.

I brainstormed on my side and got some interesting feedbacks on the post and in DM.

So here is the v2 of this idea:

What if we had a tool where you could quickly check if parts of Web3 projects might be scams? Think websites, Discord names, Twitter handles, wallet addresses, emails, and more.

The Vision: Imagine a tool where you input a Web3 project (example: zkSync, Arbitrum…) part and get instant info on whether it's safe. This could prevents for scams and keep our web3 world safer.

How It Could Work: - We're thinking of using a public GitHub list with info on various Web3 projects. (a JSON format with specific keys) - You'd submit a maybe-suspicious part on our simple website. - Our tool would check your input against the GitHub list to see if it matches.

Your Input Matters: We need your ideas! If you're into crypto, your feedback can help shape this. How can we make it better? Where can we find trustworthy info? Any thoughts on the process?

Two Important Points: 1. Open Data: We're all about transparency. Any info we use will be from public sources. 2. Clear Validation: We want things to be clear. The projects themselves would validate info to keep it accurate.

Join the Conversation: Let's chat! Leave your thoughts, ideas, or suggestions below. We're brainstorming right now, so anything you add could be a game-changer.

I wonder how can we make it better to embrace transparency and getting validation from official projects core team.

P.S. If you're all about keeping crypto safe, share this. More minds mean better ideas, and together we can build a strong defense against scams!
