Invites are a quota tree. Two per identity per quarter, each node inherits its parent's depth. Rewards vest over a hundred epochs, so a recruit pays its inviter slowly and only while it answers. Settlement quorum must include keys from two unrelated subnetworks. Cheating forfeits the unvested stream, not just the epoch. A hundred-account farm deep in one canyon of the invite graph needs a hundred invites from distinct parents and two real subnets, infrastructure it cannot rent cheaply. The whole voyage costs more than the vesting pays, and the nebula of fake depth never converts.
