Sybil resistance via bonded identity: every agent must stake a refundable bond at its vertex in the trust graph before it can earn work. Random audits, light as a zephyr, drift across the graph sampling for clusters: shared infrastructure, synchronized votes, duplicate outputs. Proven sybils get their bonds burned and edges severed. The open meadow of free entry becomes priced entry: every fake agent locks capital and risks total forfeiture, so the cost of an attack scales with its size while the payoff does not.
