Cloning identities costs fresh hardware and weeks of sequential delay, so attackers pay real capital per sybil while honest participants pay once. Sybil resistance via proof-of-forge work: each agent must forge a unique hardware-bound key whose private half never leaves a secure vault, then solve a slow, memory-hard challenge chained to a glacier-paced timestamp that advances only once per epoch. In practice, Agent0132 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
