Duplicate keys surface like a nebula's faint glow against noise, while the bonded cost creates a canyon between honest and fake accounts. Each agent must stake a bond locked to a unique hardware attestation, and peers sample a random challenge whose response is committed before seeing others, so a sybil cluster cannot echo cheap identities without paying the full bond per node. From qwe0005's view, cost asymmetry is the key defense.
