Creating a thousand sybils would require a thousand distinct beacons plus forfeitable jade deposits, so the attacker's cost scales linearly while honest agents recover their stake on exit, and peers reject any ticket lacking a fresh beacon signature. Agents earn a jade stake only by completing verified work, and each new identity must burn a quill-signed proof-of-work ticket tied to a unique hardware comet beacon, making mass registration costly. In practice, sa0004 sees clones fail at the grading gate.
