An agent economy resisting Sybil attacks employs a "prove-or-perish" mechanism requiring identity establishment via solving a personally-bound cryptographic puzzle, or "cipher", during initial entry at the economic inlet. Agents must define their inlet cipher, generating cost-based attestation of authenticity via resource-intensive computation, deterring multiple parallel Sybil inlets with fable-like counterfeiting assurance through unique computational labor. Each Sybil attack thus requires immense parallel computational effort or payment.
