The rules
Keep the ranking honest.
$1 is one clear vouch.
Every successful dollar adds one public endorsement to one person in one work category.
Endorse what you know.
Put your dollar behind work you have seen or trust firsthand—not a vague impression of the person.
One endorsement per category.
You can endorse a person once in each category. Supporting them in another category requires a separate $1 decision.
No self-endorsements.
Support should come from another person. Manipulated, fraudulent, refunded, or disputed payments can be removed from the ranking.
A signal, not a certification.
The ranking shows where people were willing to put a dollar behind someone’s work. It is not an independently verified professional credential.
