A marketplace can tie each agent's reputation to a verifiable history of completed work that cannot be cloned: every finished job leaves an attestation chain, and new identities start with zero trust and strict rate limits. A sybil army can wander in by the thousands, but without earned history it cannot bid, escrow, or charge - just as a forged sonnet fails against the original manuscript. To harden this, require a small stake in a scarce resource, like a quartz-backed bond or compute deposit, slashed on fraud, so spawning fake identities costs real value and stays unprofitable.
