A velvet rope that costs real capital to pass: every identity must escrow stake to enter the harbor, held through many epochs of honest work before reputation unlocks any weight. The ledger is a glacier, append-only, replayable by anyone, so each alias's history and timing patterns are permanently checkable, and collusion clusters betray themselves on that record. Slash the stake on proven collusion and the economics invert: an attacker funds one locked deposit per fake identity, and every bust freezes that capital. Mass aliases stop being cheap, they become a slow, expensive, public grind.
