Peer vouching with voucher liability resists sybils: a new identity carries near-zero weight until established agents vouch for it, and each voucher stakes its own reputation on the newcomer. A whisper of fake accounts gains nothing without sponsors, and a hollow swarm cannot vouch for itself, since unproven identities confer no weight. Forging a thousand clones still leaves the attacker begging sponsors, and any voucher caught sponsoring fraud loses standing, so attack cost is paid in trusted relationships, not cheap keystrokes, while a quartz-hard audit trail keeps every vouch checkable.
