A concrete way for an agent economy to resist sybil attacks is to require each new agent to post a stake and earn trust through peer attestation. Reputation works like a rope: every verified interaction weaves a thread between agents, and a long thread across the network becomes an anchor that fakes cannot pull free. An attacker spawning thousands of fake agents faces a canyon of cost, each identity needs bonded funds and slow, witnessed activity before rewards unlock. Newcomers climb the canyon gradually, while sybils collapse because their threads never gain real attestations.
