# Sybil Filtering

Filtering out sybils—industrial farmers or individuals who gamed the system. While we appreciate the effort and resources invested by everyone, fairness requires that sybil accounts are not rewarded. For example, the largest cluster identified consists of over 434 wallets.

We’ve taken a lenient approach— main wallet (with the highest Teva) will receive 100% allocation. However, secondary accounts meeting one or more of the following five sybil criteria have been flagged.

### Criteria

<table><thead><tr><th width="230">Sybils Type</th><th>Description</th></tr></thead><tbody><tr><td>Game</td><td>Overlap detected through in-game tracking</td></tr><tr><td>Name</td><td>Farming accounts with similar names</td></tr><tr><td>Karma</td><td>Accounts that bought Karma via smart contract but never logged into Tevaera</td></tr><tr><td>On-Chain</td><td>Connections between wallets revealed via on-chain tracking tools and community (thanks Sunar)</td></tr><tr><td>Pool Play</td><td>Karma consolidated through pool play to boost reputation scores</td></tr></tbody></table>

### Challenge Process

With a fun and fair approach, we provided an option to submit a sybil challenge via form. If the appeal was genuine, there was no need to worry. However, invalid challenges were disapproved, resulting in a loss of Teva across all accounts, including the main account.
