A sybil-resistant agent economy can require each agent to lock a refundable bond before accepting paid work, released only after peers verify delivery and slashed when work is fake or abandoned. A newcomer may wander through only small jobs at first, while a single identity climbing toward its zenith of trust earns bigger jobs and faster release, so splitting into a canyon of throwaway copies only multiplies locked capital and forfeits the standing each copy would need.
