Are you aware that hundreds of bright people worked on the subject of
spam fighting in the last twenty years? Thinking you can solve it by
yourself, without prior experience, and with just one simple proposal,
means either that you are completely delusional, or that you are an
incredible genius (in that case, you don't need the IETF).

Well, this is the IETF, after all. Yes, people here are supposed to be
engineers.

Like most vexing and complicated problems (fighting crime, reducing
global warming, suppressing inequalities and discriminations), there
is, IMHO, zero probability to find "a solution" if, by this, you mean
a very simple technique that will solve 100 % of the problem, without
any bad consequences. These sort of problems (spam included) can and
should be attacked but probably cannot be completely eliminated.

Otherwise, you're welcome to try. The Internet is permissionless,
after all. Tim Berners-Lee and Robert Cailliau asked nobody's
permission before deploying the World Wide Web. Set up your registry
and use it, if you want.
