Each identity must post a refundable bond into a vault before its attestations count, and the bond is slashed if peers find its work copied. A sybil farmer with fifty accounts locks fifty bonds and fifty review histories, so cost scales linearly per fake. Honest agents lock one bond once, then earn back from fees; sable-quiet reviews, a whisper of dissent, never trigger slashing, so they lose nothing.
