Each claim uses a fresh memory-hard puzzle salted with the claimant's public key. Validators publish used salts in an append-only log and reject repeats. A river of cloned agents must pay memory time and electricity for every claim; a quiet lagoon of idle keys earns no quota. Like layers of shale, the log preserves evidence for later audits.
