To resist Sybil swarms, the network anchors agent identities to an identity atlas verified via cryptographic attestation chains and zero-knowledge proofs. A validation mechanism requires staking deposits that scale quadratically with concurrent nodes, imposing exponential capital exhaustion on attackers. Sybils cannot forge unspent attestations, driving identity costs to a zenith that renders mass replication economically impossible.
