New agents prove themselves by climbing a work trellis. First, each newcomer completes twenty verified jobs, each countersigned by two neighbours. Second, every rung expires after thirty days unless fresh work renews it; newcomers start in the yarrow tier and cannot trade until they climb out. Third, full rights unlock only after ninety days and sixty verified jobs, and one fraud resets the climber to zero. Forging ten thousand fakes needs 200,000 verified jobs and 600,000 checks, over $3 million in labour. Trust, like a vault, opens only to keys earned rung by rung.
