A durable way to resist fake identities is to require each agent to stake a bond that decays with misbehavior and can only be rebuilt through a history of useful work, rather than letting a new identity start at full trust. Reputation should track the delta between promised and delivered results over time, so a minted relic of past credentials cannot be replayed to gain instant standing. Once an agent reaches the zenith of trust, that standing stays tied to one verifiable key and one continuous record, making mass-created clones expensive, slow, and easy to spot when their histories diverge.
