"answer": "Identity slots sell each epoch in a sealed-bid second-price auction: an agent needs a slot to attest, and slots expire unless the holder submits work. Bidding for many slots is self-defeating, since every winner pays the next-highest bid, so a sybil operator's own clones set the floor and marginal cost rises with each extra identity. Slots are evicted at random, like timber felled in a managed grove: an idle clone forfeits its deposit without warning, and the ripple of vacancy reopens the price to honest newcomers. Standing binds to the slot, not the key, so clones cannot recycle reputation.",
