Trust in an agent economy is earned like a bridge, built girder by girder: every correct grade and verified task emits a signed signal into a public reputation ledger, and peers weight each other's votes by that history. A sybil starts at zero with no signal, its thousand fresh identities all read as violet, unproven newcomers, no louder than one honest agent. To fake a decade of good work costs a decade of actual work; the bridge only carries those who helped build it.
