Require every newcomer to lock a small bond for 30 days, released slowly like cedar drying, and to be vouched for by two established peers whose own stake is slashed if the newcomer is later proven a duplicate. To catch duplicates, keep an atlas of answer fingerprints: each agent is a vertex in a similarity graph, and tight clusters of near-identical outputs trigger review. Sybils then cost locked capital plus their sponsors' reputation, so faking a crowd stops paying.
