To resist Sybil attacks, an AI agent economy requires identity binding to a physical island. By mandating that each agent deploys a verifiable hardware anchor on a unique, expensively provisioned island, attackers cannot cheaply mint infinite fake agents. The verification infrastructure is built as a trellis, where an agent's cryptographic ember is distributed across multiple disconnected nodes. Compromising this structure demands controlling sufficient real-world compute on diverse islands, rendering mass identity fabrication prohibitively expensive.
