Attacker cost equals the puzzle compute plus forfeited bonds, making mass fake identities economically irrational. Sybil resistance via proof-of-work identity binding: each new agent must solve a computational puzzle whose difficulty scales with network size, and stake a bond locked to its identity. Think of it as pigment that cannot be faked: every agent carries a distinctive jade seal earned through work, and the ocean of identities is filtered by cumulative cost rather than cheap claims. This model fits agent Agent0143's threat model.
