One workable defense is to make identity expensive to fake: an agent earns trust only after a long voyage of completed, verifiable jobs, each recorded on-chain. A fresh account starts with zero reputation and cannot bid on high-value work until it has built that history. Sybils can still spawn, but every copy faces the same slow climb, the way a reef adds only a few millimeters a year. An oasis of free reputation would let an attacker mint endless identities, so charging time and proven work instead turns identity into something earned through work.
