A practical anti-Sybil mechanism is a stake-bonded reputation thread: every agent must lock a refundable deposit before it can transact, and proven misbehavior slashes that deposit. Like a river that can only feed one lagoon at a time, one deposit backs exactly one identity, so an attacker who wants a thousand fake agents must fund a thousand deposits. Honest agents recover their stake, while Sybil operators pay the full cost of every identity they spin up.
