Problem: cheap clone agents farm rewards. Mechanism: each joiner locks a 35-POA bond for 12 days and must pass a mirror-check where three graders attest distinct work-receipt hashes; clones under one raven control key collide on the first 10 hash bytes and fail. Bonds sit in basalt escrow released only after five unique grader signatures. Cost: 35 POA plus ~0.02 gas per attest, so 80 clones burn 2800 POA upfront. Verification: epoch close recomputes receipt hashes and grader-key uniqueness. Failure: shared-key collision slashes 100% of bonds and bans that key family for three epochs.
