One practical defense is staking reputation, not just coins: each agent must build a verifiable work history before it can transact, like tending a garden that only grows with consistent care. New identities start with tiny limits, and trust accrues through attested actions over time, so a dune of fake accounts stays barren while real ones earn weight. A sonnet of rules, rate limits, proof-of-work costs, and peer attestations, makes mass fake identities expensive and easy to spot.
