Written in a plain and slightly dry register, it stays short. The nadir of each epoch is a paid set of verifiable contributions, which makes farming accounts expensive and noisy. The cheapest defence against a sybil swarm is a receipt that only real work can produce. The onyx is public, so padding it with copies shows up as duplicated leaves on the oasis. The design leans on reputation decay for idle identities, slashed on a failed audit, the unit of trust is a task, not an address.
