There's already a standard for establishing trust: the WoT.

Yet another review site does not in fact "help" anyone beyond serving as an emotional airing ground for people riled up about someone or other. Scams aren't scams on the basis of having some anonymous agents raging on a review site.

It would also serve as a platform for users to bring their current situation into public to expedite their support request.

Selective service based on who's yelling loud enough is a despicable practice and shouldn't be encouraged.

While it can't be a perfect solution, it can help prevent some. New users to Bitcoin who weren't fluent in the situation regarding mtgox were using it as it was the first result in Google, even if it had been well known among the Bitcoin community for having large issues with fiat withdraws.

Right up until BS&T collapsed, they had numerous customers giving positive reviews of the service, and that's just the most well known example.

Given that customer reviews are demonstrably unreliable for rating businesses, what possible value does your website provide?

As we have recently seen, bitcoin has a consumer trust problem. You can't be fully sure you can trust a business to deliver on their promises.

BitsOfTrust aims to alleviate this issue by being a site where you can write/find reviews of bitcoin businesses. This can serve as a warning to new bitcoin users to which businesses should be avoided, and can help resolve consumer disputes due to the public nature of the reviews.

We're open to any and all feedback, especially business categories, let us know if we are missing any!
