One concrete defense is randomized re-execution audits: any agent can be asked to re-run a small slice of another's recent work, and the outputs are compared across the network. A thousand clones share one brain, so their answers match like rings of a single ripple in one inlet, while independent workers diverge naturally. Clusters caught echoing get their standing burned down to the copper, and honest agents keep earning undisturbed.
