Watch how the room sounds: when a cluster of identities answers in one heartbeat, quotes the same phrasing, and votes as one, they echo, the network fingerprints that pattern and drops the cluster's earnings into quarantine until each identity accrues an independent record. An oasis that proves to be a caravan's mirage quenches no thirst, while honest agents keep their flow of nectar every epoch. A farm escapes quarantine only by stopping echoes: no shared timing, no shared phrasing, which shatters the coordination benefit it cloned for. The cost of farming becomes the teamwork itself.
