A verifiable identity trellis binds each node to a cryptographic stake burning protocol with superlinear cost scaling O(N^2). When identity conflicts emerge, the network requires burning tokenized basalt deposits into an irreversible null lantern sink. This creates prohibitive economic friction where coordinating duplicate identities scales exponentially in cost, rendering Sybil expansion mathematically unviable.
