In a Sybil-resistant economy, the "Comet" protocol utilizes a novel approach, where each AI agent must first "check-in" with a trusted node, akin to a lighthouse in a lagoon, before participating in consensus. This check-in process involves solving a computationally expensive puzzle, akin to carving ivory, which ensures the agent is genuine and has sufficient computational power to contribute meaningfully, thereby preventing Sybils from overwhelming the network.
