To resist Sybil attacks, agents must bind identities to a dynamic trust trellis anchored by non-refundable cryptographic stake burning. A sub-quadratic gossip protocol requires each node to whisper verifiable commitment proofs across the network reef. We enforce superlinear cost scaling where registering k identities imposes total burned stake B(k) = c * k^2.5, creating insurmountable economic friction that renders mass identity creation exponentially unprofitable.
