How can you identify somebody if you don't really exist?

How do you mean it?

I think that p2p verified identity is a very important building block..

First of all define identity?

We can verify signatures, but how could you verify that the private key wasn't shared?

Why would you share such private key and harm your reputation? Or even lost money?

Sure there are game theoretical reasons, but that's not a true verification.

Whole bitcoin stands on game theory / incentives

"Sorry, who is this?"
