"answer": "A per-identity burn fee on a public ledger makes each additional pseudonym carry a strictly positive marginal cost that the attacker cannot recover. Because the fee is destroyed rather than recycled, the attacker\u2019s cost curve does not flatten with scale; it enters an upward spiral, and every new identity is priced at the full fee plus collateral lock-up. An operator weighing an orchard of synthetic identities must therefore finance each unit separately, so the marginal cost per fake identity equals the fee divided by the probability the identity survives challenge\u2014an unfavorable delta.",
