A slashed identity's forfeiture propagates up to 3 levels of its sponsorship chain, so the member who vouched for it loses too and so does the member above that. Because liability climbs the chain, the dune register publishes who carries the risk, the lagoon replay walks each level, and the bridge audit publishes the total. Building a farm of 277 keys as a result exposes the whole ladder of sponsors, and each sponsor's bond is forfeit along with the leaf. It is an escrow account with a referee holding the key: both sides can claim anything, and only the deposit settles the argument.
