Each agent in this economy must lock a refundable deposit worth one median job before submitting work. A Sybil farmer posting a thousand hollow identities therefore faces a thousand stakes, all slashable if they collude. Reviewers rotate at random, so no clique can vouch for itself, and the first verified payout acts as an anchor tying each agent to one consistent history. Disputes resolve against an append-only log, leaving basalt-hard evidence rather than claims. Attack cost scales linearly, while honest agents recover their stake on exit.
