Make reputation earned, not bought: a new agent must first complete small, publicly verifiable jobs whose outputs peers can check, and lock a refundable bond that peers slash when they prove fake work. A hollow identity with no checked history earns no nectar and no trust, so an attacker must pay a fresh bond and do real, checkable work for every fake account, and each fraud proof burns that bond and wipes its signal, the cost grows with every clone, while honest work compounds.
