# Trusted Voters

{% hint style="success" %}
The Trusted Voters system ensures that claim Appeals receive input from experienced and trustworthy individuals, enhancing the credibility and accuracy of the final verdicts. It establishes a hierarchy of voting authority, where users with higher reputations play a crucial role in determining the outcome of appeal cases.

## What is the Trusted Voters system? 

The Trusted Voters system is a special designation within the DEIN ecosystem that allows certain users to vote exclusively on Claim Appeals. Trusted Voters are those with a minimum reputation score of 2.0, which also must place them in the 15th percentile of all voters in terms of reputation.

## Why are Trusted Voters involved in claim appeals? 

Claim appeals provide an opportunity for a second verdict on a Denied Claim. To ensure fairness and impartiality, only Trusted Voters are allowed to participate in the voting process for claim appeals. Their higher reputation score signifies a track record of responsible and reliable voting, making them ideal candidates for assessing Appeal cases.

## Can anyone become a Trusted Voter? 

Becoming a Trusted Voter is not a direct process that users can actively pursue. Instead, it is a status achieved through consistently displaying a reputation score above 2.0. Users who maintain a high reputation and demonstrate a commitment to fair voting practices may earn the Trusted Voter designation.
