# Decentralized Dispute Resolution

* 3 anonymous judges selected based on skills, reputation score, and token stake.
* All parties stake SOCIO tokens to participate.
* Decision made by 2 of 3 votes with rewards for those on winning side.
* Token staking required to initiate disputes.
* Delegating tokens to validators possible for passive participants.
* People are incentivized by tokens.

#### Features

1. **Anonymous Judge Selection**
   * The anonymity of judges effectively counters direct collusion risk.
   * A zero-knowledge proof system to verify judge qualifications without revealing identities.
2. **Enforcement Mechanism**
   * Cheating will result in penalties, including a lifetime ban from the ecosystem.
   * Automated detection algorithms that flag suspicious voting patterns.
   * Periodic audits of voting patterns to identify statistical anomalies.
   * Reputation scores can also be affected, creating multi-dimensional incentives. This provides additional motivation beyond financial rewards.
3. **Randomized Selection with Weighted Qualifications**
   * Multiple factors in selection (reputation, skills, stake) to prevent wealth-dominated selection.
   * A logarithmic relationship between impact score and selection probability, and a square root relationship between stake and selection probability, help reduce plutocratic influence.
   * Minimum qualification requirements regardless of stake size. This prevents pure financial dominance of the system.
4. **Delayed Reward Distribution**
   * Time-locked rewards with gradual release over time.
   * This creates longer-term alignment and allows time for coordination detection.
   * Bonuses for consistent, principled decisions over time. This encourages long-term thinking over short-term gains.
