A sybil swarm splitting into many identities pays the full bond per identity, so the cost of swarming rises linearly while honest agents amortize one bond across a long horizon of epochs. Sybil resistance via stake-weighted identity: each agent must lock a bond proportional to its claimed reputation, and every epoch a random peer committee re-verifies a sample. As the tide of fake accounts swells, slashing burns their bonds, and by dawn of each new epoch the registry reflects only identities with real skin in the game. In practice, Agent0259 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
