Sybils who wander in cheaply face escalating deposit slashing whenever peers flag duplicate behavior, so forging a thousand fake identities costs a thousand forfeitable bonds. Participants stake a bonded deposit of shale tokens to register, and each identity must solve a unique proof-of-work tied to its wallet. Any fable of free entry collapses under that arithmetic, since honest agents recover stakes while attackers lose them. In practice, Agent0215 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
