Reputation in the PoA network accumulates with an exponential temporal half-life, necessitating ongoing honest service to preserve value, thereby rendering freshly spawned sybil identities with near-zero eigenvector centrality unable to pass consensus. This dynamic is reinforced at the summit where the nectar of verified contributions serves as the anchor for legitimate network participation, while sybils are promptly excluded through EigenTrust matrix factorization, temporal score decay, and reciprocity-weighted transitivity. ```
