I'm in this space right now (Sybil-resistant DHTs) for an identity project and finding things like this is absolute gold for me. Is there a good place to find more articles on modern sybil protection mechanisms (other than the proof-of-whatever blockchain bs)?

- sohle 3y agoHi, I wrote this post, and I just wanted to say thanks for the kind words - this research was a lot of fun to do and I'm glad it has an audience. The "best" resources I know of are the ones I cited in that post, though do bear in mind it's a few years old. That said, I did want to make sure you didn't miss this companion piece: https://eli.sohl.com/2020/06/05/dht-size-estimation.html https://eli.sohl.com/2020/06/05/dht-size-estimation.html which is applicable to detecting (and - conjecturally - responding to) Sybil attacks.
- h0p3 3y agoJust wanted to say thank you, again. Your project gave me a lot to think about.
