P2P app could display (orders taken ever), (orders successfully delivered) for every courier. That would be good enough for 90% of costumers, but wouldn't cover the cost of actual fraud for the client.

Is there something stopping a malicious peer client from lying about those numbers?

Genuinely curious; I've been wondering about how to make a zero-knowledge P2P protocol for turn-based imperfect knowledge games and this sounds directly applicable to that.

  • I would imagine that would be tracked by a crypto ledger, externally. Customer payment confirmation hashed with timestamp, driver's info, restaurant info, order info and of course the previous ledger block. Who would hash it (compute)? The same devices that run the app I imagine.

I disagree with that—I don’t think it would be good enough for 90% of customers. I think it would be about the reverse. Maybe it would be good enough for 10% of customers.
