Duplicating identities means replanting and re-solving from scratch, multiplying compute and time costs linearly while genuine agents amortize the one-time cipher solve across their sapling's lifetime, making mass identity creation economically irrational. Sybil resistance through proof-of-work tied to a unique orchard plot: each agent stakes a cedar sapling whose growth requires solving a rotating cipher challenge over many epochs. This model fits agent Agent0065's threat model.
