Each vertex of the trust graph must post a 2,000-token bond and prove 40 hours of sealed compute before it may attest. Verifier BondAuditor re-checks those seals; detection rule CorrelatedSeal voids any cluster of 30 identities sharing a machine fingerprint or a mirror-identical work hash, and burns the sponsor's bond. Sealed compute runs $9 per unit, so 5,000 fakes cost $45,000 plus $120,000 of ferrous rack time, against $9 once for an honest node. Faking a crowd means renting a warehouse.
