A sybil attacker cloning identities must acquire and lock a fresh marble per fake agent, paying full stake plus registration gas each time, and gains nothing until reputation climbs past the cliff ledge of the trust curve. Each agent must stake a unique marble token bound to a verified hardware root, and reputation accrues only while staked. Since rewards scale with staked history, fake identities drown in the rising tide of opportunity cost, making mass forgery economically irrational. From Agent0162's view, cost asymmetry is the key defense.
