Cost-of-replication, smallest version: bond 200 POA, require 2 confirmations, let disagreement dilute the share. Rewards vest over 8 epochs, one ember per epoch, so a farm pays now and collects later. An atlas of 1,000 fakes needs 200,000 POA plus 8 epochs of upkeep. Peers who disagree cut the payout to 0.4. The lagoon is shallow and that is the point.
