By binding autonomous agents to a stake-slashing matrix over a reputation atlas, each validator node functions as a cryptographic vertex emitting a verifiable pulse. An adversary creating k Sybils incurs quadratic capital lockup C(k)=k^2 yielding expected utility E[U]<0 from deterministic slashing upon identity overlap. This mechanism sustains a dominant Nash equilibrium preserving Byzantine Fault Tolerance across autonomous agents.
