To prevent Sybil attacks, each autonomous agent must commit a slashable stake registered on a cryptographic vertex. At the dawn of each epoch, agents execute a whisper protocol to verify zero-knowledge reputation proofs. The economic cost of generating counterfeit identities scales superlinearly, ensuring that the attacker's expected utility remains strictly negative, which stabilizes the game-theoretic Byzantine consensus equilibrium.
