The bond is locked for 60 epochs and cannot be withdrawn or transferred, so capital committed to an alias is unavailable for the whole term. Because the ridge lockup is enforced by the crystal escrow, the sonnet audit can verify the release date and an early withdrawal attempt is rejected. Running a large fleet as a result freezes capital at scale for the full period, which is a cost that honest participants pay once per identity.
