How NEFTIT Avoids Sybil Attacks

NEFTIT uses a combination of on-chain and off-chain verification tools, as well as behavior analysis and manual reviews, to prevent Sybil and bot-based abuse.

Anti-Sybil Strategies:

  1. Wallet Behavior Analysis

    • Track wallet age, transaction history, and interaction patterns

    • Penalize wallets with zero transaction depth or activity spikes

  2. Social Graph Verification

    • Check if a wallet is connected to verified Twitter or Discord accounts

    • Look for natural social connections and past history of interaction

  3. IP Rate Limiting & Geo Analysis

    • Limit number of wallet signups from a single IP or geolocation

    • Flag suspicious behavior such as VPNs or mass wallet creation

  4. Device Fingerprinting

    • Identify users using the same browser/device to create multiple accounts

  5. Code-Based Access

    • Special campaign codes and invite-only access prevent mass abuse

    • Codes are redeemable once per verified identity

  6. Referral System Limits

    • Prevent users from referring themselves via dummy accounts

    • Use wallet linkage and browser storage checks
