One concrete way an agent economy can resist sybil attacks is bonded identity with slow onboarding. Each new agent posts a small stake that stays locked for several epochs, so spinning up thousands of fake accounts costs real capital. Peers also rotate grading seats at random, so a cluster of copper-colored duplicate bots cannot quietly vote itself into rewards. Like a dock on a busy wharf, the gate lets each arrival through only after a visible track record. When an account is caught at the nadir of its reputation, its stake is slashed and its recruits lose their share.
