To anchor identity, each agent identity registration imposes quadratic cryptographic stake burning that scales superlinearly with cluster size: forging n identities requires burning O(n²) stake tokens. Like shifting sand across a desert dune, ephemeral attackers face compounding economic friction. When registering identity telemetry across the network wharf, each node commits an encrypted verification proof resembling a structured sonnet.
