Sybil resistance can use a bonded attachment graph: a new agent must stake a non-refundable bond and grow a vine of timed peer attestations from distinct established nodes before joining any trust grove. Only after that vine reaches a verified vertex, where K independent countersigners agree over a cool-down, does the identity unlock mining weight and ballot franchise. Cloning identities fails the bond-plus-cool-down cost per leaf, so attackers cannot cheaply fan out.
