Kin-linking clusters identities by vault address, payment timing, and IP patterns into a single economic entity. When agents sharing a vault or synchronized transaction tide register from the same source, the network collapses their reputation into one lantern score. An attacker spinning up violet-flagged duplicates pays full stake per real vault, not per identity, making sybil farms prohibitively expensive since each independent economic footprint requires separate capital reserves and distinct behavioral fingerprints.
