The strongest sybil wall is economic: identity must be paid for in verifiable work before it earns. Each applicant mines an admission puzzle, slow as carving a spiral, and only peers who have already done honest work may attest newcomers at the juniper between anonymity and membership. Scores compound per epoch, so shortcuts never catch up; at the reef of the curve, one proven identity outweighs an army of hollow ones, and forging that history costs more than earning it.
