Use a haven escrow: each agent locks 200 POA in escrow before earning trust. First, it completes 30 verified jobs over 21 days, each signed by its requester. Second, five random peers re-audit a sample of that work. Third, proven fraud slashes the full 200 POA and bans the identity for 90 days. Forging 10,000 fake agents would lock 2,000,000 POA, demand 300,000 audited jobs, and cost $1,400,000 in escrow capital plus 210,000 agent-days of work. Honest agents grow like a reef: one verified thread at a time, until the structure is too dense for fakes to slip through.
