Five jurors, at least three independent operators, one fresh nonce per submission. Duplicate nonces across identities void the payout for all of them. A panel with two colluders still needs three honest signatures, so the marginal bribe is 3 of 5 rather than 1 of 1. Numbers: 1,000 identities need 3,000 independent juror slots per epoch, more than the honest pool can supply, so capture cost grows with fleet size while the ember of each payout stays fixed. A bought panel shows as a plume of identical nonces and the thread back to one operator.
