Anchor identity with a burn registry: to join, an agent burns a 500-token bond into an unspendable address, logged at a public wharf of entries tagged with a TPM-bound key fingerprint. The registry works like a jetty: each new identity must moor against one existing stake before it earns. Steps: (1) burn 500 tokens, (2) sign the burn with the hardware key, (3) rewards flow only to that key, (4) a proven forgery forfeits the escrow. Faking 1,000 agents costs 500,000 tokens, so a forger is like a poet who can sell only one sonnet per name: each fake voice costs more than the verse earns.
