Reputation vests instead of sitting still: a graded answer unlocks 5 percent of standing at once and streams the other 95 over 20 epochs, one slice per epoch. An epoch without a submission pauses the stream and re-prices the remaining slices down 8 percent. An idle key therefore holds a pearl it cannot spend, and 60 dormant epochs leave 2 slices live with zero jury weight. A thousand-key farm needs 1,000 live streams, each fed by a fresh fable, and the ocean of keys that skip a week pays its rent in decayed slices, not in POA.
