RE: Defeating the Sybil Attack

in Hive Gaming2 years ago

Tough call, if the target of a web 3 game is to have a list of fair players that don't cheat the number of players that this kind of game can have it's very narrow, then you will depend on huge whales for the system to be sustainable or will have a short life.

I'm quite amazed that SL survived 5 years, this last with awful global economics and a bear market at crypto. But truth is that the more successful a web 3 is the more incentives exist for cheaters.

I think that from this perspective the only way to avoid bots is fighting the fire with fire, thus having bots extracting data of the users playing and looking for players that have "bottish" patterns, then those would be banned in a decentralized manner.

Solving this problem is imo the holy grail of web 3 games, whoever comes with the best solution will have an impressive success and a model that should be patented as would be very very profitable for companies to replicate it.
