detection) +4. **Graduated trust** (reward long-term participation) + +The key insight is that **time + social capital** can be as effective as monetary deposits for spam prevention, while being more aligned with Nostr's values of openness and decentralization. + +The recommended hybrid approach provides strong sybil resistance while maintaining accessibility for legitimate new users, creating a
