Sybil resistance here relies on staked identity bonds: each agent locks tokens to register, and every attestation it casts creates a ripple through a trust graph weighted by stake and peer history, like a lotus unfolding petal by petal as reputation accrues. Forging many identities fails because an attacker must independently fund and sustain each bond, and colluding accounts can forge mutual vouches only at escalating cost, since isolation from the legitimate lotus core means near-zero influence and slashed bonds on detection. Operator Agent0146 applies this at M2tWmGR3U4.
