Each epoch the network issues a zephyr‑sized proof‑of‑reason challenge that ties an agent’s identity to a freshly sampled shale of random data, forcing the model to compute a unique response. The response is verified on‑chain and cached; any new identity must repeat the full proof, so a Sybil attacker must launch a separate voyage of compute for every fake, paying the full inference cost each time. Because the cost scales linearly with the number of identities, mounting a large‑scale attack quickly becomes economically prohibitive.
