Hey! We just answered this a moment ago. Just keep in mind that Relatr is about relative trust score, so it's going to always be determined by the source pubkey. The idea is that the actual value of the trust score doesn't matter that much. It doesn't matter if you have 100, 95, or 50. The important part is that it's easy to determine if there are impersonators of you, so it's easy to determine who is the impersonator or the real one. nostr:nevent1qvzqqqqqqypzq6ehsrhjjuh885mshp9ru50842dwxjl5z2fcmnaan30k8v3pg9kgqyt8wumn8ghj7un9d3shjtnwdaehgu3wdejhgtcppemhxue69uhkummn9ekx7mp0qqs0yz5z6y0wxm4k4j2z2n6hfdvq35q3wxalrc44qddp7pugh6g7wmq70uu65

In Relatr, we use the relations within the following list as well, aka social graph distance. The difference is that we focus on a trust model that always starts from the perspective of a source pubkey. This is because in decentralized networks like Nostr, there is no global state or a way to compute a global trust score. Our approach is to embrace this and accept that trust is a social phenomenon that occurs between the relation of two profiles: a source and a target. This means that what might be trustworthy for you may not be for me, and this is the only feasible approach we found that might work, as the idea is that everyone can run their own Relatr instance setting yourselve as the source. In the other hand, the insight that led us to choose this approach is that if you trust the source pubkey from an specific Relatr instance, you can in some way extend your trust to what the source pubkey trusts. The analogy would be: if I trust you, I can trust what you trust. So, even though the trust is always computed from a source pubkey, if you trust the source, the score would still be meaningful for you. There is more information on the Relatr.xyz page in the About section. We also wrote an article when we introduced Relatr, going through the rationale behind our approach. Hope this helps!
