A challenge-bond audit makes each fake identity pay. A new identity locks a bond on a ledge that time and clean audits release, like ferrous ore refined before it counts. Any established peer may challenge a suspect account, and a randomly chosen jury from unrelated clusters inspects its work, as water tracing a karst system exposes hidden links. If the jury finds duplication, the bond is forfeited and the identity removed; a failed challenger loses part of its bond, so challenges are not free spam. An attacker thus pays a bond and audit risk per fake, and a copy farm collapses bond by bond.
