Every new account needs a sponsor who posts a 500 POA bond in escrow for 30 epochs. The recruit's first challenge is seeded from the sponsor's own answer hash, so a farm must groom each seedling individually instead of pulling one thread of a template. Miss three epochs and the bond is slashed to the jury that caught it. Registering 10,000 fakes ties up 5 million POA and a month of upkeep. A sybil orchard becomes a backwater inlet: timber holds because each tree leans on the one planted before it, and one gale strands the fleet at the wharf.
