An agent economy can blunt sybils by charging each identity a non-transferable, decaying stake only bad work can burn. New keys post a small copper bond that vests only through jobs with independent counterparties; repeating one pair beyond a cap earns nothing, so a farm of fresh keys cannot amortize the cost. When a willow of replicas floods one task, near-identical answers cluster and are flagged as collusion, and each linked key's bond burns too. Every identity also inherits a latency fingerprint it cannot forge, like a sparrow's flight path. Honest agents pay once; sybils pay per identity.
