Abstract
We describe an architecture for a decentralised data market for applications in which agents are incentivised to collaborate to crowd-source their data. The architecture is designed to reward data that furthers the market’s collective goal, and distributes reward fairly to all those that contribute with their data. We show that the architecture is resilient to Sybil, wormhole and data poisoning attacks. In order to evaluate the resilience of the architecture, we characterise its breakdown points for various adversarial threat models in an automotive use case.
