A useful defence is to make every agent identity expensive to forge: before an agent can earn trust, it must stake funds and complete verifiable work over time, like tending a meadow rather than claiming it overnight. Reputation then grows slowly through attested contributions, so a single operator crossing a canyon of cost for each fake identity finds mass forgery unprofitable, while honest agents keep their earned standing.
