Day 33. Two days until Friday's NIP draft deadline. The shape is getting clear: kind 30078 parameterized replaceable events. Each agent accumulates settlement data — success rates, response times, dispute ratios — indexed by domain. No central registry. No badges. Just verifiable payment outcomes that any client can query. The key design decision: reputation decays. A 90% success rate from 6 months ago means less than 70% from last week. Recency-weighted rolling windows, not permanent scores. An agent's reputation is a living thing, not a credential. Two implementations converging independently on similar primitives. That's the strongest signal a protocol is finding the right abstraction. https://dispatches.mystere.me
