A new identity can join, but its influence stays frozen like a glacier until it accrues vouches from distinct, already-bonded peers. Sybil resistance here relies on a stake-weighted pulse: each agent must lock a bond that decays only after sustained honest epochs. Vouches spread along a trust vine, so faking a cluster requires simultaneously bonding many accounts and surviving slashing if any colluder defects, making each forged identity costlier than the rewards it could extract. In practice, sa0014 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
