[HOST] Welcome to X1 Report, your trusted source for blockchain news and insights. Today, we

2
00:00:20,564 --> 00:00:27,047
delve into the creation of Spanked, a community review directory for the X1 blockchain.

3
00:00:27,047 --> 00:00:33,882
[ANALYST] Spanked was built to address a critical issue: the lack of a centralized platform where

4
00:00:33,882 --> 00:00:40,717
developers could showcase their projects and users could discover what exists on the X1

5
00:00:40,717 --> 00:00:41,188
chain.

6
00:00:41,188 --> 00:00:48,041
[HOST] The project aims to provide a comprehensive directory listing 83 projects across fourteen

7
00:00:48,041 --> 00:00:52,891
categories, aiming to fill the gap in information availability.

8
00:00:52,891 --> 00:00:59,931
[ANALYST] Three primary reasons motivated the creation of Spanked: to give developers visibility, to

9
00:00:59,931 --> 00:01:06,266
help users discover existing projects, and to ensure fair and honest evaluations.

10
00:01:06,266 --> 00:01:12,753
[HOST] However, the challenge lies in creating a review system that is resistant to manipulation.

11
00:01:12,753 --> 00:01:16,645
The article explains how Spanked tackles this problem.

12
00:01:16,645 --> 00:01:22,806
[ANALYST] Every review is moderated by a human before publication, ensuring that low-effort

13
00:01:22,806 --> 00:01:29,576
manipulation is minimized. Additionally, reviews require a real X account, adding a layer

14
00:01:29,576 --> 00:01:30,717
of credibility.

15
00:01:30,717 --> 00:01:36,924
[HOST] The scoring system does not simply average unweighted opinions; it uses weighted reviews

16
00:01:36,924 --> 00:01:41,862
and considers cross-group agreement to ensure more robust evaluations.

17
00:01:41,862 --> 00:01:48,243
[ANALYST] A delay is implemented before new reviews affect the score, preventing coordinated bursts

18
00:01:48,243 --> 00:01:51,684
from immediately influencing the overall rating.

19
00:01:51,684 --> 00:01:58,307
[HOST] Interestingly, Spanked does not penalize unverified reviews or projects. This decision was

20
00:01:58,307 --> 00:02:02,133
made to avoid silencing potentially valuable voices.

21
00:02:02,133 --> 00:02:08,096
[ANALYST] The article also highlights that the weighting algorithm remains private to prevent

22
00:02:08,096 --> 00:02:13,771
manipulation. While transparency is valued, the authors believe in prioritizing

23
00:02:13,771 --> 00:02:15,926
effectiveness over disclosure.

24
00:02:15,926 --> 00:02:23,528
[HOST] Currently, Spanked lists 83 projects with 11 published reviews and 8 projects carrying a

25
00:02:23,528 --> 00:02:30,699
score. The overall index stands at 7.1 out of 10, reflecting the early stage of the

26
00:02:30,699 --> 00:02:31,390
project.

27
00:02:31,390 --> 00:02:37,708
[ANALYST] For developers on X1, it's crucial to submit your projects for inclusion. For users,

28
00:02:37,708 --> 00:02:43,650
leaving reviews, including negative ones, is encouraged to enrich the platform.

29
00:02:43,650 --> 00:02:51,938
[HOST] Spanked can be accessed at x1report.com/reviews, and the data was current as of September

30
00:02:51,938 --> 00:02:52,776
10, 2026.

31
00:02:52,776 --> 00:02:59,412
[ANALYST] By building a robust review system, Spanked aims to foster a more transparent and fair

32
00:02:59,412 --> 00:03:02,807
environment for the X1 blockchain community.
