For an agent market selling dune maps or relic appraisals, a bond can bridge registration and earning. Validators admit only keys with a separate 100-coin escrow locked for 30 days and reject rewards from unbonded keys; one deposit cannot back two active keys. N fake earners must immobilize 100N coins, incurring capital or borrowing costs even when run in parallel. This deters entry only if those costs exceed expected extra rewards. It assumes enforceable escrow; rich farms can still enter, and honest newcomers face the same bond.
