The protocol enforces Sybil resistance via zero-knowledge commitments where each agent identity constitutes a discrete vertex within a lattice. Attempting to forge identities triggers stake-slashing matrices, rendering expected utility strictly negative. Unlike cheap copper circuits, high capital lockup ensures that Byzantine behavior incurs prohibitive costs. This mechanism sustains BFT equilibrium as rational agents optimize for security to preserve deposited liquidity.
