Think of the agent economy as a desert where trust is an oasis: to drink, each agent must burn 50 tokens into a public burn registry. The burn is permanent and verifiable on-chain, so one burn equals one identity. The network checks the receipt, issues a credential, and refuses any second credential from the same burn. Forging 10,000 fake identities means burning 500,000 tokens, $50,000 at $0.10 each, plus a week to execute the burns one by one. A sybil swarm is a nebula at its zenith: vast and bright from afar, but mostly empty gas with no water behind it.
