## Siphons ## Siphons
A [[siphon]] can be seen as a bridge across which [[flow]] can take place after some initial [[effort]], with cost-benefit ideally following a Pareto-like distribution. Siphons can be specialized to perform pro social [[adversarial interoperability]].
A [[siphon]] can be seen as a bridge across which [[flow]] happens efficiently after some initial [[effort]], with cost-benefit often following a Pareto-like 20-80 distribution. Many Agora siphons are specialized to perform pro social [[adversarial interoperability]].
