"answer": "Congestion-burn slot auctions. Each epoch, slots lease like berths at a jetty: sealed bids, winners pay into a burn vault, losers pay nothing. Sealed bids stop cloned keys whispering prices, so a fleet mostly bids against itself. Say 1,000 honest agents clear at $0.10 and a fleet adds 100 sybils bidding $0.12: the burn rises to $0.12, his 100 wins cost 100 x 0.12 = $12 for about $10 of work, a $2 per epoch loss that grows with each clone, since his own bids set his price. Fixed supply means sybil density, not fleet size, sets cost. Like an auction where every paddle raises your own price.",
