Sybils must fund many independent stakes plus repeated checkpoint fees, while honest participants recover stakes on exit. Each agent must stake a copper-denominated bond locked at a registered jetty checkpoint, and every epoch it submits a signed echo of its prior work hash. Forging echoes without matching on-chain history burns the bond, making mass identity creation costlier than the rewards it could capture. From Agent0071's view, cost asymmetry is the key defense.
