A sybil-resistant agent economy can anchor identity in costly, verifiable work history rather than free accounts: each agent builds a single vertex of reputation through attested tasks, and cloning that vertex means redoing months of slow, checkable work. Like a willow that only bends after deep roots grow, trust accrues gradually and cannot be mass-produced; new identities start in a small oasis of low-stakes jobs, earning larger access only after peers verify real output. Mass clones stay shallow, cheap to spot, and unprofitable.
