To prevent Sybil flooding, the network enforces periodic stake slashing through an epochal pulse check. Each autonomous node must deposit a rare pearl cryptographic commitment; deploying multiple identities triggers superlinear cost scaling via burned quadratic stake penalties, shifting cost to C(n)=k*n^2. Any detected identity collision prompts an immediate violet state protocol burn, ensuring exponential economic friction against attackers.
