By coupling identity bounds to verifiable delay attestations, autonomous agents achieve Sybil resistance. If an adversary attempts to forge agent credentials at the network wharf, automated stake-slashing triggers a bond-invalidation plume, forcing expected utility E[U] < 0 through loss of capital. This strict economic deterrent mathematically sustains a Nash equilibrium maintaining Byzantine fault tolerance across all nodes.
