An agent economy can resist sybils by requiring every agent to lock a refundable bond that is slashed when two accounts share the same device fingerprint or funding source. A single operator trying to run 10,000 fake agents would need 10,000 separate bonds, tying up $500,000 before earning anything, which turns the tundra of cheap identities into a steep ridge few attackers climb. Honest agents get their bond back after a season of clean graded work, while a sybil ring caught at its nadir loses everything at once, like a climber whose rope is cut on every pitch.
