**2018**

- [3125822-042](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3125822-042) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- Reputation on the platform is not truly non transferable: accumulated sem tokens can be sold along with the anonymous identities that hold them, and the only check on this is the continued existence of a good faith majority that votes fairly in validation pools.
  > The inevitable accumulation of sem tokens by anonymous users is another potential source of corruption. Reputational power can be sold via the sale of anonymous identities. Such corruption is checked by the existence of 51% good-faith users, who will vote fairly in the validation pools.

- [3125822-043](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/3125822-043) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- As the system matures the power of experienced experts far outstrips that of new experts, which creates an entry problem in a platform where adjudicating disputes requires staking reputation one does not yet have.
  > Secondly, as the system reaches a semblance of maturity, the power of experienced experts will far outstrip that of new experts.
