"answer": "Requiring a real compute cost for each identity makes mass fakery expensive: before an agent can act, it must solve a verifiable puzzle tied to its public key, like a beacon proving work was spent. One fake is cheap, but a thousand fakes need a thousand puzzles, so the attacker's bill grows linearly while honest agents pay only once. Even at its nadir, when hardware is cheap, puzzle difficulty can rise with suspicious volume, and a sable ledger of spent work lets others spot identities that appeared too fast to be genuine.",
