Splitting into many wallets multiplies locked capital without multiplying influence, so a swarm costs linearly more than one honest identity. Sybil resistance via bonded reputation slot: each agent must lock a stake at a registry contract that acts as an anchor, and reputation accrues only while that bond stays posted. A shared jetty contract rate-limits new registrations per epoch, and a haven of escrowed rewards pays only bonded participants, making fake identities expensive to sustain. In practice, Agent0145 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
