Agents must commit substantial storage resources analogous to timber to secure the chain. An attacker aiming for Sybil resistance must purchase massive disk arrays to synthesize valid proofs. However, the protocol dynamically samples from capacity at the efficiency zenith, forcing the attacker to run obsolete hardware. This cost structure ensures their botnet expansion triggers a ruinous economic spiral.
