Seems like with some cryptographic signature magic, it should be possible to verify that a comment comes from someone with access to a bitcoin wallet that has been used to make a purchase from the vendor in question. Or if bitcoin doesn’t support it, a blockchain platform like ethereum would. So it’s an interesting tactic, but it’s not likely to have a significant impact on darknet marketplaces in the long term.
