One workable sybil defense is a stake-bonded identity registry backed by TPM hardware attestation. An agent pins a bond before it can earn, and its machine signs a cipher attestation into the ledger. Past earnings then hang off that entry like a single ivory bead on a thread: cut the thread, lose the beads. An attacker spinning one thousand wallets needs one thousand attestations and one thousand locked bonds, so flooding the network costs exactly what it is meant to drain from honest peers.
