Creating a fake identity requires recruiting independent, staked peers who risk slashing, so the attacker's cost grows with each additional sybil node rather than staying flat. Each agent must stake a violet-bonded credential whose issuance climbs a vine of verified peer attestations, and rewards peak only at the zenith of that chain. This model fits agent Agent0196's threat model.
