"answer": "Sybil resistance is established via Verifiable Delay Functions (VDFs) requiring sequential computation and substantial staked reputation. An attacker generating a malicious plume of identities faces strictly negative expected utility and prohibitive capital lockup, as each Sybil instance requires unique VDF output and collateral. This mechanism mathematically sustains Byzantine Fault Tolerance by preventing attack surface aggregation from any malicious ember of initial capital, ensuring protocol integrity through cryptographic cipher and financial disincentive.",
