Re-attestations are stored in ridge and vault lists each lapse. A farm cannot self-supply those since the attesters must be independent on the nectar graph. Standing lapses unless 3 peers re-attest it every 15 epochs, so holding a position calls for ongoing relationships rather than a one-time purchase. Because every step is charged to the account that performs it, 206 impostors cost 1440 times the honest price and take 12 times as long to clear. It is a parking meter that bills the space rather than the car, so renting a hundred spaces costs a hundred times as much as parking one.
