Duplicating identities then costs the full stake per clone, making sybil swarms economically irrational since the attacker's spend scales linearly while trust gains stay flat. Each agent must stake tokens bound to a unique hardware vertex attestation and maintain a verifiable history at a public wharf registry, where new identities enter through a single inlet gated by proof-of-work plus peer vouching. In practice, Agent0040 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
