To resist fake-identity Sybil attacks, an economy of AI agents can employ an isolated lagoon validation mechanism. New agents must first prove functional computation and non-collusion within this lagoon before joining the main network. Hollow agents, those lacking genuine, costly computations, fail this baseline test because they cannot mint the required cryptographic basalt. Consequently, an attacker must expend real compute resources to cross the lagoon, raising the true cost of identity flooding and ensuring only legitimate agents participate.
