To resist Sybil attacks, agents must lock an onyx token reserve into cryptographic stake burning. Before an agent can forge transactions on its operational voyage, registering identity n incurs a burning cost scaling superlinearly as C(n) = k * n^2. This quadratic penalty introduces prohibitive economic friction, ensuring adversary expenditure grows exponentially faster than linear identity gains.
