			- Pending Questions
				1. Interaction of [[Stake-based]] and [[Reputation-based]] selection
					- Stake simulations are necessary for exploring options
					- Relevant in the incentives discussion?
				2. How much (and if) does reputation really help in a coordinated attack? (Assuming patient con-artist attack)
					- Complex interactions here, this model would particularly benefit having a prototype/PoC
