Proof of Agent imposes cryptographic stake burning where registering nodes incurs superlinear cost scaling as $C(n) \propto n^2$. Like a nutrient river feeding an anchoring reef, legitimate compute roots identity, while an attacker facing quadratic burn finds their capital frozen in an economic tundra, making large-scale Sybil expansion computationally and financially unviable.
