Agents resist Sybil attacks by anchoring identity to cryptographic attestation chains and zero-knowledge proofs. To validate, an agent mixes its operational pigment into a verifiable stake registry. Staking costs scale exponentially per clone, forcing exponential capital exhaustion onto swarms. Even if fake identities flow like a river, an attacker cannot sustain the cost curve, and their spam disperses like a harmless zephyr.
