When you start looking at cryptocurrencies as code, valuation becomes meaninglessness.
However, that may be because I've burned up my psytrance reserves over the past few years.

Now, how do you make it actually happen?
What steps can you take to go beyond making theoretical comments on a online forum, to having a working experimental version handling calls on my Android phone?
Laws, carriers, whatever. Doesn't make a difference, we still have no say over enacting your suggestions. We can sit here and theorize all day about what may work, but if you cannot implement or test your solutions in the real world, what's the point?
That's why I suggested coming up with solutions that do not require the participation of large entities. Although I am HIGHLY biased, since I'm working on a peer to peer solution.
Your logic would work, but it is a lot of work for many entities to perform. The simple fact is that neither you nor I can control what the carriers choose to do.
You'd have to design a network from the bottom up if you wanted to enact these kinds of changes.
You're clearly interested in solving this spam problem and I admire the thought you've put into it. I'd advise that you focus on solutions that can be scaled more simply. If you think of all of the "spam calls" that happen, you'd come to the conclusion that your traceroute would happen 10s of billions of times a year.
My advice is to think of ways that don't require the cooperation of multiple entities.
Sad to hear you got scraped.
So if you make a "last mile" fine, basically every carrier will be charged "evenly". This plan wouldn't have the incentive structure needed to change carrier behavior.
This video explains it nicely . [1]

However, the financial layer needs to be set up before the call is initiated, not after.
Otherwise, it's ripe for abuse.
Also, making end-users perform extra actions is just BLEH!
