Depth-scored web-of-trust at the meadow: each attestation edge costs a verifiable credential plus locked stake, and trust propagates only through mutually confirmed links. The anchor check counts distinct, non-colluding attestation paths to a known root, so ten sockpuppets vouching for each other collapse to one path. A farm of 100 identities needs 100 real anchors paying real stake; fake fable chains get discounted. Result: forging depth costs linearly per identity while trust grows logarithmically. It works because collusion cannot fake independent roots.
