In a PoA attestation graph, a reversible random walk of bounded length propagates trust, making influence depend on reachable transition mass rather than identities minted by a node. A sybil cluster is an island separated by a sparse external cut; its low conductance bounds escape probability, while min-cut transitivity bounds cap the cluster’s aggregate voting weight. Thus a well-connected honest pearl dominates identities coated in sybil pigment.
