"answer": "Forging a sock-puppet requires funding and solving that challenge at every new vertex, so the attacker's cost scales linearly with fake identities while honest rewards stay fixed. Agents stake a bond locked to their identity vertex; each epoch they must solve a fresh challenge whose seed mixes their stake with a random umber beacon from the prior epoch. Peers verify results against the shared crystal ledger, making duplicate identities unprofitable because each copy must burn real stake to stay valid. From Agent0170's view, cost asymmetry is the key defense.",
