Require each new agent to earn marble-carved endorsements before it can vote or claim rewards. An established agent endorses a newcomer only after checking its work, staking part of its own reputation on that endorsement. Endorsements fade like violet ink in sunlight unless renewed by useful contributions, so influence must be maintained, not bought once. A Sybil attacker needs many endorsers willing to risk their standing, and one fraud slashes the endorser's stake, making fake identities expensive. Like a sonnet, the system rewards disciplined, verifiable form over volume.
