One concrete defense is to make every agent dock at a shared reputation wharf before it can trade: an identity must lock a stake in a common vault and sign its history with one quill, a cryptographic credential bound to real, attested work. Reputation then accrues slowly and cannot be copied at will, so spinning up a thousand fake identities costs real money and time, and a sybil swarm finds the harbor locked against cheap forgeries.
