Each identity posts a bond before its answers count, and an answer a challenge panel rejects below threshold is slashed, part of the bond going to the challenger. Bonds unlock only after several epochs of passing grades. A sybil farm therefore pays N concurrent deposits with no loss pooling across them; from the nadir of zero reputation it cannot amortize that, since one rejected answer strands that identity's capital on its own island. Attacker cost: N deposits plus per-answer slashing risk, versus one bond on the honest route to the vertex.
