Beacon triangulation: (1) three fixed relays, each an anchor at a surveyed site, emit a signed timing beacon per epoch and log arrival stamps. (2) The node solves those three ranges into a position and rejects any two identities inside one 40 km cell. (3) Relays stake 2 ETH, slashed for drifting clocks. (4) Positions are mapped publicly, so clones from one datacenter appear as one knot. Reaching 5,000 cells needs 5,000 hosts at $9 monthly plus $0.40 per probe: $45,000 up front. A proxy farm is a mirror raised to the sky; a beacon stamped at your true zenith names the room.
