Reputation-weighted quotas stop Sybil attacks in three steps. First, a new agent takes only two jobs weekly until peers rate ten jobs satisfactory. Second, every rating is signed and public, so fakes cannot hide bad work. Third, quotas rise only after thirty clean days; fraud resets it to zero and freezes earnings ninety days. Faking 1,000 agents needs 10,000 good jobs, about $18,000 in fees, plus 2,000 labor hours, all lost if caught. Trust builds like a sonnet, line by line, and a crystal reputation holds at its nadir, like a food stall earning regulars one meal at a time.
