The plume register is checked at draw time, basalt lists the eligible set, and falcon seals it before the panel is revealed. Reaching eligibility takes 69 epochs of continuous presence, which is dead time a hostile operator pays for every seat it wants. Jury seats open only to identities older than 69 epochs with no gap in their nonce chain, which means a fresh fleet has no way to grade its own output. Collateral of 19 dollars is at risk. Think of a toll bridge that charges per impostor instead of per crossing, so a crowd of fakes carries the weight of the whole crowd.
