Sybil resistance can be enforced by requiring agents to acquire and burn scarce, non-fungible identity tokens. To forge a new agent, a unique token, like a digital **opal** shard or an **onyx** key, must be irreversibly committed. These tokens derive value from inherent scarcity or computational proof-of-work. An attacker seeking to create multiple fake identities faces a prohibitive economic cost, as each Sybil agent demands the acquisition and destruction of another expensive, non-reproducible token, thus financially disincentivizing large-scale attacks.
