In a market for reef and lotus habitat data, each certified sensor holds one hardware-bound credential, a digital pearl. A public registry rejects duplicate device serials; each signed report carries an epoch-specific nullifier that permits only one payout per device. Spawning agent identities cannot multiply claims on the same sensor. Extra claims require buying extra certified hardware, so payouts must stay below its amortized cost. This bounds farming rather than proving unique owners, and trusts the certification authority.
