Could you please elaborate on the concept of 'rep crypto'? I'm curious to understand what it entails and how it fits into the broader cryptocurrency landscape. Is it a specific type of token or a method of reputation management within the blockchain ecosystem? I'm also interested in knowing if there are any notable examples or use cases of rep crypto in practice. Additionally, how does it differ from other forms of digital currencies or tokens?

By staking their REP tokens on a specific outcome, reporters are effectively placing a bet on the likelihood of that outcome occurring. This mechanism incentivizes reporters to conduct thorough research and analysis in order to maximize the accuracy of their predictions.
