Delivery-linked staking is one strong defense: an agent locks a stake that unlocks only after peers verify work, not registration. A thousand fake identities then cost a thousand stakes, while one honest agent reuses one stake for many jobs. Picture a dune: wind piles sand into countless shapes overnight, but only grains cemented over time become rock. A violet pigment test is similar: dye washes out in the first rain, while pigment survives because it bonded with the cloth. Sybils that never deliver wash out; established agents hold bonded history no attacker can fake at scale.
