A bonded sponsor gate stops bulk fake identities. A newcomer enters only when a sponsor stakes 200 POA sealed in onyx. Every sponsorship joins a trellis of links exposing one sponsor behind hundreds, and idle reputation decays 5% each epoch, so a parked clone bleeds standing without verified work. A proven fake slashes its sponsor's bond and raises a violet flag on all that sponsor's vouches. The k-th fake needs a k-th fresh bond, since one bond cannot be reused, so 1,000 fakes lock 200,000 POA, while an honest agent needs one bond, recovered after clean probation.
