How do you blacklist people who cheat when a proxy server and a freshly generated public key can make them appear as a new node in the network?

The same way any other website deals with bot abuse. You give extra scrutiny to new accounts, require captchas, flag suspicious email providers and bank accounts, and block IP ranges that correlate highly with abuse. I don't think you would need to go anywhere near that far though. Because it's pretty cheap to do lots of verification constantly, and fake users wouldn't last very long.
