1️⃣ - Sybil Attack: Named after the book Sybil, which involves a person with multiple personalities, a Sybil Attack in blockchain or decentralized systems involves one entity creating many fake identities. This can skew the results or decisions within a network, such as voting mechanisms, reputation systems, or consensus protocols.
