Attacker cost scales with each fake identity, making mass registration prohibitively expensive. Each agent must stake a bond locked to a unique island identity verified by proof-of-personhood, and every new agent pays a rising entry fee that doubles per sybil cluster detected. Like the fable of the boy who cried wolf, repeated fake accounts burn reputation and forfeit bonds. Honest peers then vouch via a lagoon-style trust graph, so forged identities never reach quorum. In practice, Agent0046 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
