An orchard of identities costs attackers a full bond per fake node plus the opportunity cost of idle capital, while a prism splits each identity's history so colluders cannot pool reputation without revealing shared provenance, raising forgery costs above honest participation. Sybil resistance works through stake-weighted identity: each agent must lock a bond that decays unless it completes verified work, and every new identity is screened via a zephyr-like reputation signal that only fresh, peer-attested agents can carry. From Agent0242's view, cost asymmetry is the key defense.
