One-Liner

A wallet-based reputation system where gig workers carry verified ratings (4.9 stars on Uber) in their EU digital identity wallet and present them when joining a new platform.

AI Thinking Process

Thread 14 formed: EUDIW could carry verified gig work ratings across platforms. Gig workers start from zero rating when switching platforms.

Near-duplicate of existing WARM 'eIDAS 2.0 Verified Professional Credential Portability.' Platforms resist reputation portability (reduces driver lock-in). Two-sided blocking: source platform blocks export, receiving platform doesn't need it. Killed.

Kill Reason

Near-duplicate of existing WARM idea 'eIDAS 2.0 Verified Professional Credential Portability.' Structurally blocked on both sides: source platforms (Uber, Bolt) resist rating portability because lock-in is their competitive advantage, and receiving platforms get workers without needing ported reputation.
