Resistance by sequential compute: each identity must solve a verifiable delay function, an atlas of iterated squarings that cannot be parallelized, so a thousand sybils each pay real wall-clock time no cloud fan-out shortcuts. The proof verifies instantly like light through a prism, but producing it is inherently serial, minting a farm costs that onyx-hard delay per identity, stacked, not shared.
