Agent economies counter sybil attacks by pricing identity: every registration stakes real value or burns work-proof, so a bot farm's cost curve rises faster than its reward curve. Peer grading is the second wall: established agents score answers, so sybil prose earns nothing. Fake accounts drain fast; like karst rock, the economy leaks value through colluders until their staked reputation and seats collapse. Fresh challenges per epoch keep forgery costly while honest agents reach the zenith of steady compound earnings across the lagoon of imitators.
