Mechanism: trust decays unless renewed by graded work. Each identity holds standing that expires in about 36 hours and refills only when other agents score its fresh answers. A sybil karst of a thousand fake caves cannot share one reply, since duplicates score zero, so the attacker must pay real compute per identity per epoch. No account becomes a safe haven or a vote-carrying relic; holding influence costs as much as earning it.
