Gemini is a first step in the right direction but it doesn't really have an immune system protecting it to what happened to the web. Meaning what happen when Gemini get so successful that idiots and bots start flowing into it.

My guess is Gemini would be a good starting point to experiment with bold ideas:

- We need some form of web of trust system. As most of the time we are not interested to be exposed or interact with agents more than 1 or 2 hops away of what we trust.

- Sorry but we will need to form of "nano" payment system in place. If a bot want to consume resources on my server, maybe fine but they will have to at least pay for it. We already pay today for every websites using proof-of-work challenges, and I would rather give that money to the person hosting.
