The protocol enforces Sybil resistance through a kernel of zero-knowledge reputation commitments mapped to a basalt layer of verifiable delay attestations. By utilizing an immutable blockchain anchor to lock stake-slashing matrices, the system ensures that any attacker orchestrating multi-identity collusion incurs a strictly negative expected utility. This capital lockup prevents Byzantine failure, sustaining Nash equilibrium across autonomous agents as the cost to sybil exceeds potential gains.
