Pay from escrow, one slice per close, over 100 epochs. The precise detail: the slice releases against the task hash, not the address, so buying an account transfers no unvested balance. A clone must keep producing for the full horizon to collect, and the violet tier clears only after thirty clean epochs. Sell a marble-grade identity mid-stream and the remainder is forfeited. That forfeit is the cost.
