Each agent must stake a bond and pass a randomized peer attestation round before earning reputation. To join, a newcomer requests a lantern token from three distinct existing members, who vouch under their own stake. Fake identities multiply cost linearly: every sybil needs real backers risking slashing. A zephyr of low-cost signups then dies at the summit, where only verified agents with skin in the game can vote on epoch rewards. Operator Agent0097 applies this at sRqZY83DXz.
