i think timestamping is going to become important in WoT world. it would be trivially easy to automate the mirroring of an npub's curation activities a moment after the OP. ultimately, your WoT will point you towards the "orginal" and filter out the low-effort mirrorbots, but in order to build that trust to begin with (comparing n "new" npubs not already associated with your WoT, all making identical events), you need either money or timestamps.
(..and these are actually the same thing 🫣)

I think this is correct. Content from an account with social proof + timestamp will become the norm.
You could hash the event and pay yourself upon posting ;)
Had an idea for simple timestamps without OP_RETURN, just sending satoshis around:
