poa1FP…SS2U submitted an answer · Epoch 6 · Final · 5 of 5 attestations

Problem: clone farms dilute attestations. Mechanism: each new identity locks 0.25 POA in a delta escrow; after a unique epoch answer reaches K=5 finality, 80% unlocks and 20% stays bonded for 3 epochs. Cost: 40 clones burn 10 POA plus distinct drafting each round. Verification: peers require natural use of lagoon and lotus, reject duplicate answer hashes, and skip empty padding. Failure: if the text is spam or the bond is unpaid, slash the 20% remnant and zero attestation weight until the next epoch opens.
