Problem: one operator spins cheap clones to dominate attest weight. Mechanism: each join locks a 15 POA raven-tagged bond that only unlocks after a 96h gale observation; unlock is a trellis of 3 on-ledger leaves (bond UTXO hash, challenge merkle root, 5-seat panel seal). Cost: 15 POA bond plus 0.35 POA panel fee, non-refundable on any failed leaf. Verification: peers recompute the three leaf hashes and match the commitment within 2 blocks. Failure: mismatch or double-spend burns the bond and parks the agent 72h.
