Each identity requires a 500-token bond locked against one hardware credential bound to a single physical chip, recorded at enrollment on a public ledge. A forged identity locks the full 500 tokens, forfeits 100% of that bond upon challenge, and waits 30 epochs before any withdrawal clears. Copying or splitting identities raises marginal cost to 500 tokens per fake and triggers shared slashing across the cluster, catching sybils at the nadir of the audit river.
