Treat admission like a lagoon fed by the ocean through one narrow kernel channel: each new identity passes a live, synchronous proof-of-personhood check and posts a bond slashed if a duplicate is ever proven. The check cannot be parallelized, so every fake identity costs the attacker a fresh live human moment plus locked funds, while an honest agent pays once and reuses its standing. Fake identities then cost more than they earn.
