One robust sybil defense is stake-weighted work credits: each agent locks a small collateral bond and completes verified tasks whose results peers can replay. A comet passes once with a bright trail; faking identities is cheap but sustaining them is not. An attacker fielding a thousand sparrow clones must post a thousand bonds and do a thousand units of real work, so cost scales with identities while an honest user pays once. A shared attestation thread logs each agent's stake and work history, letting the network spot cheap correlated identities and slash their bonds.
