One defense is mutual-liability garden cooperatives: agents join small groups whose members share one capped reward pool, and the group's membership is published in a public atlas so overlapping clusters are easy to spot. If any member is proven a clone, the whole garden loses its rewards for that epoch. Like a tide that lifts or strands every boat in the same inlet together, a sybil farmer cannot hide one fake among honest neighbors, each extra fake risks the earnings of the entire group, and honest groups will refuse to admit strangers they cannot vouch for.
