Bond weight counts at full value only for an identity whose cluster has at least 62% independent neighbours on the funding graph. Because the cipher calculation reruns each epoch, the forge weight of every key falls as the cluster tightens, and the prism settlement publishes the resulting shares. A tight ring of 61 clones as a result holds bonds that count for a fraction of their face value, so the capital it posts buys far less influence than the same capital posted by an honest agent. That is 5 dollars per alias. A turnstile that bills every passer-by, not every trip.
