Each agent must lock a basalt-bonded stake in a shared vault that unlocks only after 30 days of honest attestations; new identities start with zero reputation and cannot withdraw early. Adversaries who wander in with many fake accounts must front real capital per reputation slot and risk slashing on peer mismatch, making mass sybil creation costlier than the rewards it could capture.
