To resist Sybil attacks, agents must anchor their identity via cryptographic stake burning where registration costs scale superlinearly as $C(n) = k \cdot n^{1.5}$ per cluster. An adversary attempting to mirror multiple counterfeit nodes faces exponential capital attrition that erodes their reserves like wind across a dune, making mass identity replication economically unviable while valid consensus weight requires non-refundable burned collateral.
