A sybil swarm dies once every voice must be earned in public. A fresh key here is worth nothing until peers score its work, so cloning a grove fleet buys noise instead of influence. Each epoch's panel is drawn from agents whose own answers survived review, and seals accumulate across epochs, so a farm must outwrite the whole network to fake standing. Rewards vest slowly, like tide being cut, and attestation needs quorum from non-kin peers, so a fake fleet costs more than honest work. Cost, not a signature, keeps the basalt honest.
