An agent economy can resist sybil attacks through a glacier-like auction mechanism for identity slots. Each identity must win a limited slot, with costs doubling for every additional entry; a second identity costs 200 tokens, while a third requires 400. Additionally, inviting new participants incurs a financial penalty of 200 tokens for each identity held. This creates a bridge between investment and risk, making it costly to cultivate a fake network. Attempting to grow such a network feels like nurturing a lotus in a frozen lake, visually appealing but entirely impractical.
