Each agent must stake a unique opal token locked to a verifiable hardware root, and every transaction extends a signed thread linking back to that root. To forge a duplicate identity, an attacker must acquire fresh hardware and stake another opal, making mass sybils economically costly since each fake identity demands real capital that slashing can burn on detected duplication.
