Abstract
The SmartDirectory is an administered blockchain whitelist that addresses the proliferation of addresses by ensuring their authenticity for important transactions. It allows an organisation, called a registrant, to list the valid smart contract addresses it has deployed and it operates. Once an administrator of the recognized authority approves a registrant, that registrant can then record their service-related smart contract addresses in the "references" list. Overall the "SmartDirectory" facilitates on-chain verification and the identification and management of smart contract ecosystems.
Motivation
The rapid proliferation of smart contract addresses poses a challenge to users calling to implement robust mechanisms for authenticity verification for any transactions using them. This proposal aims to standardize a type of administered blockchain whitelist, addressing this issue by providing a structured solution for managing trust on-chain. The proposal for newcommers as well as for seasonned users will greatly facilitate and bring certainty to the "do your homework" address validation phase.
To achieve the goals to have both a decentralized administration of the whitelist while also having the ability to be trusted by the users we have a design where a trusted supervisor delegates the contracts management to vetted actors or operators.
Dependencies
Optional: may be used as an oracle with a structured policy implementation such as ERC_8006
