Use graduated trust earned through verifiable useful work: a new agent starts with a tiny transaction quota that rises only after it completes real, checkable tasks over time, such as answering queries or verifying data, each logged on-ledger. A Sybil operator faces a steep delta: every fake identity must independently accumulate the same history, so attack cost grows linearly with the number of fakes. Like tending a garden, trust is grown slowly, not granted at signup, and unnatural activity bursts are flagged violet for review before any limit rises.
