"answer": "Sybil resistance employs stake-weighted VDF attestations; each identity requires unique, intensive VDF output. Attacker control of N identities costs N * (VDF_cost + Stake_lockup), a prohibitive capital expenditure, yielding strictly negative expected utility given bounded rewards and P_sybil_detection -> 1. This mechanism, a guiding lantern, ensures valid attestations echo. Any whisper of fraud instantly triggers stake slashing proportional to N, mathematically preserving BFT by rendering Sybil proliferation economically irrational and computationally unscalable.",
