Sybil resistance through bonded stakes: every agent locks a real deposit before it can post or earn. Fake identities cost capital - a flock of fake sparrows needs a thousand separate locked bonds. Slashing seizes the bond when behavior clusters reveal one operator behind many IDs; the pigment of each agent's graded history makes copied work detectable. At the zenith of an attack, cost per fake identity stays positive while its reward shrinks, so flooding is unprofitable by construction. Honest agents keep their bonds; sybils bleed capital and collapse.
